Big Daddy zots a repeat offender ping

The NRSC withheld money from the candidate because
she did not BOW TO ROMNEY and his RINOS.

Romney used his pictures with the NRSC and the letter below
to raise millions of dollars.
It is no surprise he kept it for himself and Soros.

Mitt Romney: "Dear Supporter,
The Democrats will stop at nothing to cling to power in the U.S. Senate this year.
In addition to the millions of dollars President Obama, Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid
.... Even the smallest contribution can help. The NRSC is less than 24 hours away
from the last end of the quarter deadline before the election. They need your support
now if they are going to reach their fundraising goals.
Please make a donation now of $25, $50, $100 or even $250.
Thank you for all the support you have given to this point. I am certain that with your help,
the NRSC and Republican candidates will be able to have the resources
to take the fight to the Democrats this November.
Sincerely, Mitt Romney"

Is anyone surprised that Romney has welched on the woman candidate(s)
whom his henchmen attacked? (SSDD).

Thanks. I was just about to push the troll warning on that guy.

On what happened in Delaware, it seems to me that, while people can have differences of opinion about candidates before the primary vote, and while private parties have a right to say what they think, however stupid, party officials and Republican gurus have no business attacking official Republican candidates AFTER they have won the primary election. If they want to do so, then they should step down from office first.

Anyone who behaves like this should be fired. The Republican party apparatus in Delaware is obviously crooked and corrupt as well as far to the left. They would rather elect a leftist who will let them share pork with the Democrats than elect an honest man or woman who will serve their state and country.

They must go, one way or another. Or, if the Republican voters in the state cannot drive them out, the National Party should withdraw their approval to use the name “Republican” from them.

Eureka! An obscure intra-party bylaw that no one’s ever heard of screwed the whole election! Wait till this gets out into the Delaware press, the great mass of the electorate will be furious as they storm the registrar’s office (tar and feathers in hand) demanding a do-over!

I bet if the digging goes a little deeper, Rove’s fingerprints are on this. No wonder he was so angry after Christine O’Donnell won the primary. He bet against her (and the people) and lost.

You totally ignored the whole substance of this article.

Does the rule of law matter, or not? Did the repug establishment break the rules, or not?

If you’re gonna play dirty against your own team members then pardon me if I have the audacity to say that maybe you’re not on my team after all.

“Mike Castle would have won.”

Facts are not in evidence. A race that is never run is not a race with an assured outcome.

My bet is that the predominately liberal Delaware voters would have said - between Coons and Castle - why have a RINO when Coons is the real deal?

That guess is no more wrong than yours. Like yours, it’s only a guess.

[SoConPubbie]

Wow, I thought we had wised up but then I see an article like this. The choice was clear: run a RINO and win, run a conservative and lose. People chose the latter. Now, that’s fine, and I will not second guess their choices, so long as they don’t second guess the results. Mike Castle would have won. Christine lost. End of story. Was it worth it to run a candidate more in line with conservatism and lose? Or would it have been better to run a RINO who may or may not be in your corner? Not sure, but it is what it is. This internecine finger-pointing is stupid beyond measure.

You've made some erroneous suppositions.

1. That a left-wing extreme RINO like Mike Castle could win given the ascendency of the Tea-Party in national politics and in Delaware itself.
2. That the airing of evidence showing the culpability of the members of the Elite in the GOP in Delaware with regards to Christine's evidence is internecine finger-pointing and is stupid.

You're wrong on both issues and sound more like Karl Rove than a conservative.

You're on the wrong side buddy!

Great ZOT! :)

[Danae]

You know, deep fried anything is just flat out tasty... but not even deep frying can make this sort of troll palatable.

A nice ZOT! executed with extreme prejudice is the only recipe that works.

Hi Domenad.
You have far more expert knowledge of drinking Hamm’s than anyone else.
Have another mein freund.

“Mike Castle would have won.”

No, according to polls taken on and near Electrion Day, he would NOT have. You libRINOs know thais, but you insist on trying to MAKE it true to shut down any effort to run a conservative again. We’re on to your phony game.

[TBP]

Even iof a RINO wins, you win nothing. You might as well have elected a Dimmycrap.

Even if a RINO wins, you win nothing. You might as well have elected a Dimmycrap.

Once Chrstine was trhe nominee, of course they were trying to lose. I’d bet money that Castle and the state chairman both voted for Coons.

[Texas Eagle]

So, in short, there is no such thing as a Republican Party in Delaware. There’s two RAT Parties only one of them goes by the name of The Republican Party.

[TBP]

Do you remember the 1976 Republican National Convention, where Sen. Richard Schweiker was going to run with Reagan had Reagan been nominated that year?

When Sen. Schweiker, who was not known as a conservative, got back from the convention, a reporter asked him if he had “learned” anything. Sen. Schwieker’s response was: “Yes, I learned what party loyalty means. It means the conservatives have to support the liberals but never the other way around.”

[RedMDer]

IATZ but if he comes back...
