I completely agree with your comment on the announcement - in fact even if it is a decision they’ve made there is no reason to officially announce something like that ever publicly in a statement. I also meant to include the words “it could be a” after “in this case”...I actually thought for a second you had edited that out and then saw what I had posted. Anyway, I don’t know that for sure, and it is just as valid to assume it is being done out of spite - but it is not consistent with their pattern of coming around and supporting the primary voters’ choice in other races once those candidates won the primary. This is the first one, if this report is accurate, where they would have not done that so far.
But aside from that, you just lifted my remarks completely out of context and ignored what I was responding to overall. You are encouraging people to not give to conservative candidates supposedly to send the NRSC a message, even though that would directly harm the very candidates you claim it would help (the NRSC wouldn’t care about getting complaints from candidates they aren’t already supporting and those candidates would already know they didn’t get support from the NRSC without you not donating to them). This would only cement the position of the NRSC and further harm the candidates that would need support. Sending them a message would be for those candidates to get a huge warchest to the point they don’t need the NRSC - that would make the NRSC notice, not drying up the funds further of candidates they aren’t supporting to begin with. Moreover, why not just contribute to the Our Country Deserves Better PAC or the Senate Conservatives Fund?
I respect your points,, BUT, i personally believe it would only hurt good conservatives for 3 or 4 days. The point would hit them national GOP,,,,very hard and fast.
ANd when they are forced to reverse under our pressure, we own the party from that moment on.
