I heard Craig Huey being interviewed by Larry Elder on radio this morning. Huey confirmed that GOP did not back him financially or otherwise. Initially, they promised $500K, than scaled down to $40,000, then .... nothing. How appalling.

Larry received the same treatment when he was considering a run for the Senate (Boxer’s seat). He visited D.C. and met with the GOP “potentates,” as he call them LOL, and they ended up backing Fiorina. End of story. Larry would have been a FAR better candidate.

I could make a very long list of excellent candidates who have received the exact same treatment over the last decade.

But they have no problem making sure leftists like Dede Scozafava get a million bucks, or with spending like amounts for the RNC to meet at Waikiki.

They are tone deaf, out of touch, behind the times, etc. One thing to watch for in unknowns, however, is libertarian affiliation, esp. a direct connection with RuPaul’s Campaign for Liberty. They are disruptive and not at all conservative.

I don’t have anything to do with people like that. The ones I’m talking about were all solid moral conservatives.
