WASHINGTON (AP) — Republican Senate nominee Christine O’Donnell of Delaware is calling out the Republican establishment in Washington for not helping her underdog campaign.
In an interview on ABC’s “This Week” that aired Sunday, the tea party favorite said she has asked the National Republican Senatorial Committee for help but that the group is standing on the sidelines even though her Democratic rival, Chris Coons, is getting a boost from his party.
A spokesman for the Republican committee, Brian Walsh, has noted that the group gave O’Donnell the maximum direct contribution of $42,000 and is working with her campaign.
The committee is not spending heavily on ads as it is in closer races elsewhere. Polls show Coons with a strong lead.

Posted on October 17, 2010 at 2:50pmcruisemates, I prefer an enemy I can identify as opposed to the rino which is unpredictable. I hate to admit i like a dimocrap under any condition, but at least they tell you that they will take your money and freedom and a rino will slink in through the cracks. what are you cruisemates?

Posted on October 17, 2010 at 2:43pmINMYOPINION, I also have unlimited out of state calling and will definitely throw my support to Christine by calling from Texas. I think the JUNK Karl Rove threw out there about Christine was totally uncalled for, and therefore I have no respect left for that little man! Evidently the elite GOP crowd think they are better than us mere everyday VOTERS..

Posted on October 17, 2010 at 1:53pmThink that we are seeing the same situation in Alaska with Joe Miller battling Lisa Moreofthesamski. He won the primary against Lisa but she has opted to run as an I (Incumbent) ’cause her feelings were hurt or something. So far as I know the NRSC has contributed virtually nothing to the Miller Campaign. Credible sources tell me that although the national committee has representatives in Alaska, they are largely for show.

Posted on October 17, 2010 at 1:53pmThe Republicans are a joke, this is the very reason why I’m not a big fan of the Repubs right now. All they care about is the status quo and getting people elected we need real canadites like Christine O’Donnell who will fight for the people instead of what their stupid party tells them too. When she wins in Nov the joke will be on the Republicans. Mike Castle an automatic win, if he would have won he would have pulled an Arlen Specter and switched parties if the Dems rubbed him the right way.

Posted on October 17, 2010 at 1:37pmFor the life of me, I can‘t understand these guys’ behavior on this. They know they’ve got a real problem with the base, as I‘m sure every day they get thousands of people like me telling them they’ve already sent their money to their own favorite candidates directly. It would have actually been an excellent opportunity for them to improve their image and renew confidence in them had they swallowed their arrogant pride and come out full force for Christine — regardless of her flaws which pale in comparison to so, so many other political candidates. It’s not just any race, it’s gone high profile.
And it may even have make the difference necessary for a victory. There’s plenty of folks who follow the establishment herd and take their cues from these guys. Wow, if Karl Rove is so against her, I probably should be too. It‘s reminiscent of the last election when so many supposedly smart and savvy and snobby conservative pundits and columnists just couldn’t find it within themselves to support their own party’s choice for VP, and decided it was better to back a redistributionist. Those folks are now dead in the base’s eyes, and the national GOP is heading in the same direction.
Is this any way to run a party? What are these people thinking, or are they just feeling?

Posted on October 17, 2010 at 12:33pmThis is a re-post until after the election:
I received this in an email and thought it was worth posting as a reminder of what and when things happened….. please cut and paste if you agree
Remember January 3, 2007
…… I don‘t understand WHY the people running for office don’t say this in their ads!!!
The day the democrats took over was not January 22nd 2009 it was actually January 3, 2007 the day the Democrats took over the House of Representatives and the Senate, the start of the 110th Congress.
The Democratic Party controlled a majority in both chambers for the first time since the end of the 103rd Congress in 1995.
For those who are listening to the liberals propagating the fallacy that everything is “Bush’s Fault”, think about this:
January 3, 2007 was the day the Democrats took over the Senate and the Congress:
At the time:
The DOW Jones closed at 12,621.77
The GDP for the previous quarter was 3.5%
The Unemployment rate was 4.6%
George Bush’s Economic policies SET A RECORD of 52 STRAIGHT MONTHS of JOB CREATION!
Remember the day.
January 3, 2007 was the day that Barney Frank took over as Chairman of the House Financial Services Committee and Chris Dodd took over as Chairman of the Senate Banking Committee.
The economic meltdown that happened 15 months later was in what part of the economy?
BANKING AND FINANCIAL SERVICES!
Thank Congress for taking us from 13,000 DOW, 3.5 GDP and 4.6% Unemployment to this CRISIS by dumping 5-6 TRILLION Dollars of toxic loans on the economy from YOUR Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac fiasco’s!
(BTW: Bush asked Congress 17 TIMES to stop Fannie & Freddie – starting in 2001, because it was financially risky for the U.S. economy, but no one was listening).
And who took the THIRD highest pay-off from Fannie Mae AND Freddie Mac? OBAMA.
And who fought against reform of Fannie and Freddie??? OBAMA and the Democratic Congress.
So when someone tries to blame Bush…
REMEMBER JANUARY 3, 2007…. THE DAY THE DEMOCRATS TOOK OVER!”
Bush may have been in the car, but the Democrats were in charge of the gas pedal and steering wheel they were driving. Set the record straight on Bush!
So, as you listen to all the commercials and media from the Democrats who are now distancing themselves from their voting record and their party, remember how they didn‘t listen to you when you said you didn’t want all the bailouts, you didn’t want the health care bill, you didn’t want cap and trade, you didn‘t want them to continue spending money we don’t have.
I’m not forgetting their complicity in getting us into this mess, and I’ll be marking my vote accordingly!

If the Republican is a RINO, the Libertarian or Constitution Party candidate gets the vote. Are you listening, RNC?

As a tea partier I’ll send you a message, we will not form a new party, we will however crush the liberal arm of the GOP if they are not willing to get back to conservatism and support the Constitution of the United States. It’s their choice!

Posted on October 17, 2010 at 6:48pmAhem…Cruisemates; allow me to explain: if the GOP gives me progressives, like Mary Fallin in Oklahoma, then the GOP does NOT want my vote in the general election. No more progressives means no more progressives, it does not mean no more progressives unless the democrat is worse.
Report Post »So, if the GOP doesn’t like, fine, they say “it’s like voting for the democrat,”….yeah sure, whatever.
You sorry GOP constitution fearing, progressive loving, sad excuse for pinko commies can LOSE. No more progressives. If that means the democrat wins, fine. I’ll fight civil war to keep my freedom before I vote for another progressive for any reason.

Posted on October 17, 2010 at 8:01pmThe GOP Establishment is making a major mistake in not fully supporting the candidate chosen by the people of Delaware. It is their right to chose ANY person they want to represent them. For the GOP to attack that candidate like they did and then withhold support is a act of war on the people. And this is a war they will lose. We will not be enslaved by Progressive Democrats and we sure as hell will not allow the RINO establishment to become our slave masters.
If they do not get fully behind the peoples candidate then after this election cycle we will just have to clean our own house and toss the RINO’s to the curb. This is a party that belongs to the people and not the chosen few. We are Conservative Republicans not Progressive Democrats.

Posted on October 17, 2010 at 8:08pmThey said they wouldn’t back her, and they’re not backing her. What’s the problem? I see this as a good thing. That seat was going to a progressive no matter what. Maybe by ‘12 the country will be sufficiently burnt out on the Obama/DemocRAT/Progressive agenda that we can make a sweep and start to undo the National Socialist damage.

Posted on October 17, 2010 at 8:11pmSorry cruismates, your argument might explain why the NRC would support Castle in the Primary, not why they would then fail to support Christine after she won the nomination, unless they want to lose in the general as away of punishing the Tea Party for not listening to them. What do they gain by withholding their support from their party’s nominee when she needs support in beating the Democrat? Isn’t it all about beating democrats? Or is it about something else for them? What could that be?

Posted on October 17, 2010 at 8:53pmSo true. If a republican wants to be a democrat, I would prefer the democrat win. Either you follow the tenants of smaller government, less spending, and more individual freedoms or get out of the Republican party. I would much rather have O’Donnel run and lose than have the “other guy” run and win as a republican. No more Democrat-Lites in the Repub party. Deleware will learn the hard way what happens when you vote for a Marxist.

Posted on October 17, 2010 at 10:50pmAgreed. She may be a Republican candidate, but this is an oppotune time to elect a candidate that is not “bought” by the party with all the strings that come with the money. Let us give her our own money.

Posted on October 18, 2010 at 1:24amI disagree with you Cruisemates; Christine O‘donnell isn’t a nobody, she is an everyday American like your or me; O’donnell is someone who should have the oppourtinity of serving our country politically if she so desires. Secondly the Tea Party is not for either the Democrats or the GOP, the Tea Party supports anyone who is properly vetted and wishes to do their duties through the constitution. Finally wake up to the fact that RINO is the republican equivalant to a progressive democrate, whose sole desire is to undermine the freedom granted to Americans through the constitution; so it will take more than money to help O’donnell, you will still need to VOTE for her.

Posted on October 18, 2010 at 8:40amSo what it boils down to is the Gop wanted a candidate that they knew would vote the way THEY wanted rather than for what the people wanted. Even the GOP is scared to death of candidates that are not professional politicians and will not toe the party line. I sent $100 to her campaign. I hope it helps. We need fresh ideas and new people in Congress. Enough of the professional politicians.

Posted on October 18, 2010 at 10:49amIt‘s hard to think that the RNC hasn’t figured out why they are not going up while the Dems are going down, Their is a reason ” WE DON’T TRUST THE RNC LEADERSHIP” and with them helping the Dem’s put her down shows their arrogance.
