Worst RNC cash flow in a decade

Yep, that’s what I do. After all, Michael Steele said he can’t gain he majority so why should I donate to a losing cause? I do donate to SarahPAC and have donated to candidates like Allen West, but the RNC? Pffft... let the country club RINOs keep their own organization afloat. They don’t want us conservative bumpkins anyway.

[Jeff Chandler]

Hey RINOs!

[Uncle Miltie]

A: Steele.

[P.O.E.]

Saving my political donations for Pat Toomey here in PA and Palin nationwide.

Sarah PAC is currently financing 4 major RINO’s.

Can you tell me where you found that information. I checked the Sarah PAC site and couldn't find any information about which candidates they're giving money to.

Thanks!

[Obadiah]

I may not agree with all of Palin’s PAC support picks, but I darn sure trust Sarah. It makes no sense to instantly try and purge the Party. You have to build a coalition to win and implement your ideas.

[mono]

They still dont get it. Starve them, choke them off. Do NOT send them another dime until they shut it down and start over again as a pure, conservative party!

[spodefly]

I understand it completely. My family has easily given 100K or more to Republican causes in the past 20 years. That all stopped in 2006, and until the RNC decides to actually have the guts to follow through on conservative candidates and principles, they can pound sand. I will support individual candidates only, and only if they are Conservative.

John Kasich - Governor OH

Nikki Haley - Governor SC

Tom Ganley - US Senate - OH

Stephen Broden - US House TX-30

I’ve seen that video several times; wish there was a new one.

Surprisingly, a lot of people still haven't heard of Lt. Col. West. That will certainly change in 2010. Hannity interviewed him in Dec. For now, sadly, very few entering politics would serve as an adequate response to your inquiry.

I may not agree with all of Palin’s PAC support picks, but I darn sure trust Sarah.

I trust her too. But, the SarahPAC website says she is the "honorary chairman" of the PAC. It looks like they are registered and operate in Arlington, Virginia. It's not clear how much say she has in what they do.

My main concern is for DISCLOSURE so that donors can find out exactly how their money is going to be used. I, for one, will probably avoid giving to PACs and give directly to the candidates of my choice.

There’s nothing wrong with supporting RINOs in Blue States. I have no problem with, say, George Pataki running against Kirsten Gillibrand for NY/US Senate - I would gladly donate to Pataki. What irks me is running RINOs in neutral/red territory, ie Scozzafava in NY23, or Lindsay Graham in South Carolina. I also understand Sarah donating to McCain, it would be weird if she didn’t - nobody needs that poop hitting the fan - buy why would she donate to Graham?

MY donations...
2008 - RNC, McCain, Sandy Treadwell (NY20)
2009 - Hoffman, Astorino (Westchester County Exec), NYers for Growth (no more RNC)
2010 - Brown so far (no more RNC)

WHO IS ELSE IS DONATING TO SCOTT BROWN? PUT YOUR MONEY WHERE YOUR MOUTH IS AND $END MONEY TO $COTT!!!!!

[philled]

Looks like this is all my fault. I seem to have no problem finding candidates to send money to. I contribute to them directly and throw away any GOP/RNC mailing that I receive.

[Cicero]

I guess they blew it all on Scozzafava.

Michael Steele sets a new record for stupidity. If you thought the RNC was bad in 2006, just look at it now. Worse. They have one or two years to figure it out, or they are Gone with the Whigs.

[Antoninus]

You want money? Fire Michael Steele and replace him with a conservative. Until then, nada.

[foxfield]

There’s nothing wrong with supporting RINOs in Blue States.

Good point.

WHO IS ELSE IS DONATING TO SCOTT BROWN? PUT YOUR MONEY WHERE YOUR MOUTH IS AND $END MONEY TO $COTT!!!!!

Already done! Not much time for others to get on board--election on Jan 19, 2010, IIRC.

[Cheetahcat]

Worst RNC in History Why support it?

[itsahoot]

Let’s ask Michael Steele! Maybe he can figure it out.

Steele said today, he wasn't sure the Republicans could win back the House.

[CodeToad]

The RNC is dead to me. Registered (I) a few years ago. Let them continue to send me junk mail and I’ll continue to send it back to them using their stamp.

The RNC = RINO and there is no changing that. We have gone decades with them lying to everyone, telling us that they are conservatives. BS. The RNC didn’t even back Reagan.

[UCFRoadWarrior]

I guess we can cross off Sarah Palin, also....supporting RINOs thru her PAC tells me she is not conservative

I can understand the John McCain support....but not for the other Liberal RINOs. That is just too much
