Here's your donation, idiots...

In the 2006 GOP congressional primary in Arizona's 6th district we had a conservative, pro-life, pro-border security candidate and a RINO running against each other for a seat being vacated by openly gay RINO Jim Kolbe. The conservative was making way too much headway and the NRCC actually interfered IN THE PRIMARY ELECTION and gave hundreds of thousands of dollars in support and advertising to the rich RINO candidate. The RINO lost anyway, thank goodness, but the damage done by the lying, cheating, smear artist RINO against the conservative candidate was done and he went on to lose against the liberal ACLU democrat in the general election. This flipped the seat from a Republican held seat to a Democrat. Thank you NRCC. I know this because I live in the AZ 6th congressional district and I was on the conservative candidate's campaign staff.

You don't deserve a dime. You deserve only our undying derision and disdain.

You beat me by 20 seconds... Good job.

Based on your story, I wonder how much ‘help’ the RNCC will give Andy Harris in Maryland, who just beat a RINO in the primary.

I agree that the party doesn’t deserve our donations. For seven years, the RNC sent surveys to me and asked for my opinions and money. Each year, I wrote my opinions and sent donations, but none of my bill suggestions were passed. The suggestions weren’t radical. I suggested lower tax rates, less unconstitutional pork barrel spending, a brick wall on the Mexican border, and a repeal of No Child Left Behind. Since none of those were enacted, I wasted my money, and they don’t deserve any more of my money.

Didn’t the same thing happen with Arlen Specter? I forget which state he’s from. But a conservative was beating him in the primaries and Specter promised Bush if he would back him, he would legislate like a conservative, so Bush went there and helped him get elected and then Specter turned around and put the screws to Bush after he helped him(Specter) get elected.
