I’m joining late again today and just for a bit!
I arrived this morning to a note from the GOP Senate Campaign:
“For months the media has predicted GOP victory, yet early election results are now showing the Democrats with a slight edge.
Why?
The answer is simple – the Democrats are spending $40 million more than the Republicans in battleground races. For weeks, our candidates have been holding on, despite a relentless barrage of negative ads – but we need your help now or it’s over.
I know that times are tough, that’s why we’re fighting so hard to bring new leadership that will turn things around. But, if we don’t rally together now – as a team – then we will lose as individuals.
Can we count on you?”
Followed by links for donations. I did reply, but don’t expect anyone to read it. It did make me feel better to ssend them this feedback:
“It isn’t the Dem spending on negative ads that is the problem. It IS that you have no message and that you disrespected your Conservative base and got your candidates in the primaries. In fact Senator McConnell stated that his goal was, “to crush the Tea Party.” When leadership fights their base with more vigor than they fight harmful policies (Obamacare, amnesty, debt) then they should not expect an easy path to victory.
You wanted the old bull quislings, now you get to live with the results of trashing your base.”
