The Senate Conservatives Fund is showing some “class” here. They’re trying to help McConnell recover from his and his campaign’s self-inflicted wounds by their warring on the Tea Party.

I suspect it will NOT be enough to enable McConnell to prevail in November—his viciousness toward the Tea Party will still be felt in the November election (less than six months from now).

It doesn't surprise me that SCF would endorse the party's nominee. I think it illustrates the difference between “us” and “them”. I wasn't alive at the time, but I do recall reading how Reagan fought hard for the nomination in 1976, and then gave his full support to Ford once he was party's nominee.

I don't think the same could be said for the Republican establishment in 1980, seeing how they got John Anderson to run as a third-party spoiler.
