So, according to you anti-Newters, Newt should have told the NRCC to F-off then. Right? Is that how you would have played it? Really? Cause I’m not even seeing you freepers blaming the NRCC. Just Newt.

I already said there were posts on FR condemning the actions of the NRCC. There were numerous ones. But Newt and the NRCC both have a dog to hunt in this issue, and neither one trumps the other. The NRCC was wrong to appoint Scozzafava in the first place, and Newt was equally wrong in blindly backing her; especially in the face of determined opposition. Both actions deserve condemnation from conservatives. Both received condemnation. And that's the end of the story.

How can it be the end of the story if Newt is a RINO? And if he isn’t a RINO, then he’s being unfairly targeted.

I just want to find out the truth and the ‘why’. I’m funny that way.

The NRCC was wrong to appoint Scozzafava in the first place

The NRCC had nothing to do with this. She was appointed by the eleven county chairs from the district. The chairs were appointed by Republicans in the district.

That's what I've been saying over and over on this thread. The blame for this belongs with the grassroots Republicans in the district who selected those eleven county chairs.
