This is why I never give anything to the GOPe umbrella organizations.

I send it straight to the candidate.

The RINO’s will still demand we donate and support their candidates as they fight against our guys tooth and nail. They will even pretend we are somehow on the same team. lol.

$500,000 to get 80 voters to switch, while they campaign against conservatives.

And, yes, they will demand our vote to “stop Democrats” in the 2014 races.

Me too!!

I totally agree this is the way to help candidates ... especially those that have the same beliefs that I have.

State candidates always matter but so do National ones now!

So who in their right mind are still giving money to the RNC or any of the “umbrella” GOP groups, rather than individual candidates? Is this where the really big money folks are sending their $$$$$$$ ?

The Republican party went to Hell when they stonewalled Sarah Palin out of the 2012 convention.

And they love that money so much they’ll even run fake Tea Party candidates to get it (e.g. Marco Rubio).

they had the nerve to call the other day....usually I just let the phone ring for numbers I don't recognize...

I don't want to be a "republican" anymore...I'll always vote for them, but just am sick of their elitist leaders....

and yes...money to the candidates only.....consider Cuccinelli folks....

The NSCC started raising money after Palin and Levin went to NJ...to cash in on the same Tea Party they despise. BASTARDS.

that imposed ObamaCARE/RomneyCARE.

Notice the words “AND CONSERVATIVES”

from the article:

“”It’s been just over a week since the campaign has ended and bills keep coming in, but all the help I was supposed to get from conservatives and Republicans across the country hasn’t.”
