These big money donors will be the death of the GOP. I don't like Romney, but who the heck is Mr. Oberndorf to have any say so on this election? This has got to stop. Is it Citizens United that has made all this possible? What's worse is a lot of these donors aren't even giving much of their own money, they are going around collecting money from a bunch of well heeled clueless fools. (i.e. Gidwitz in Illinois)

Even more humorous is that California and Illinois big wigs are involved. Big donors from two states that the GOP never wins anyway.

They are trying to make sure that Jeb Bush is the only RINO in the field. Then he will win because there will be a half dozen conservatives who won’t know when to quit.

How do you think that a two-bit loser like Romney, who had won a single election in 20 years of running, and who had be so dismal in that office that he couldn’t run for reelection, and left with 34% approval, managed to become the 2012 nominee in the first place?

No! Not another Bush.

Maybe can have to stop calling them RINOs because I guess they do represent what GOP is at least to the people within the party who have all the money and power.

I will support the republican nomination over a democrat but I don't like seeing the field ran by big money like it is. I would rather see the big donor hold off pledging there support till we are closer to the primaries.

Government of the people, by the people, for the people seems to have perished from the earth, replaced by government of the money, by the Uniparty, for the oligarchs.

As I stated when this began, after the election, it is going to take BILLION dollars to win in 2016.
