I’m not following this as closely as others are, but aside from Rove, whose behavior I find astonishingly and perplexingly bad, I haven’t seen any of the Republican mainstream badmouthing of O’Donnell that is being alleged. The powers that be are all coming to her support.
I’m likely just misinformed on this, and perhaps she has been unfairly panned by the leadership of her own party. But does anyone have any non-Rove evidence of this ... since the polls opened on election day?
I’m always suspicious of MSM reports. They have an incentive to trump up these differences. I’d be interested to know if any Republican has been willing to go on the record since the end of the primaries to bash O’Donnell.
For the record, leading up to election day a certain amount of intra-party bashing is to be expected. The leaders of our party are allowed to endorse whoever they want.
My question is this, to repeat. Who is on the record as a villain here, other than knucklehead Rove?
“but aside from Rove, whose behavior I find astonishingly and perplexingly bad, I haven’t seen any of the Republican mainstream badmouthing of O’Donnell that is being alleged.”
What about the NRSC - which despite today’s turnabout, did everything they could to knock of O’Donnell, were reluctant in their turnaround, from all we know, and tried vigorously to knock off Joe Miller (even during the clost absentee counting), and Ken Buck (supporting Jane Norton) before that.
/sarcasm on/ But other than that the GOP establishment types have been nothing but good guys! /s ;)
