Wrong, make them spend to defend!!!
Notice that story doesn’t give any specifics?
Well .. With that one in the bag for Peters, it only makes sense.
In this race, you have the establishement Republican down by a whopping 10%, so the GOPe is investing cash for the win:
Kansas Senate - Roberts vs. Orman NBC News/Marist* Orman 48, Roberts 38 Orman +10
In this race, you have the conservative challenger down by only 5%, so the GOPe is hanging HER out to dry:
Michigan Senate - Land vs. Peters CBS News/NYT/YouGov Peters 46, Land 41 Peters +5

Is it sexism? Is it incumbency protection? Or does the GOPe just hate conservatives?
Remember when the Establishment was whining that “outside groups” weren’t helping Joni Ernst in Iowa?? Well it is they who are now pulling out of Michigan.
Meanwhile, the “outside groups” have been sending money in to keep the democrats on defense.

No doubt the Establishment needs the extra money to shore up their “preferred” candidates in NC, KY and KS.
#5 for your interest and megaphone
Another thread on the same issue.
“Is it sexism? Is it incumbency protection? Or does the GOPe just hate conservatives?”
Umm I will take #3 for 100 points Alex
Who would give those ‘tards any $$$$?
Sucks, politically, to live here in Michigan. Sucks even more to have been ‘represented’ by John Dingell and John Conyers.
Sigh...
Everyone should copy and paste this article to those “The world is ending and we need your money” pleas from the NRSC.
With a little note: After Mississippi-Not in a Million Years!
Old Mitch and company need your money to prop up Roberts in Kansas and Corrupt Thad.
They might as well put an “L” on their foreheads.
They wouldn’t be in such bad shape if they embraced the base, and delivered a coherent conservative message.
They want RINOS, they are throwing Land under the bus to prop up the likes of Corrupt Thad.
Not any better here in the People's Marxist Republic of Illinois, to be represented by the likes of Turbin Durbin.
Must be the NRSC doesn’t want any donations from folks in Michigan.
Fug em all. Crooked bastards. Thad doesn’t need any support, he’s got the minority vote locked up. /s
Precisely. Throw Land under the bus cost theyblrw their cash defending a scumbag in Mississippi
Conservatives have to get off the pissing couch and help conservatives. Send $$ directly to our candidates. We can’t groan against the GOPe when they withdraw support. We have to be relevant. We need conservatives in the Senate.
I did just that, including a contribution to Land.
