Report: National Republican Senatorial Committee Won’t Fund Christine O’Donnell (Updated)

video
» 101 comments

Earlier tonight Christine O’Donnell was declared the winner of the Republican Senate primary in Delaware over heavy favorite Mike Castle. Since O’Donnell was viewed as the Tea Party candidate endorsed by Sarah Palin, with little chance of winning in the general election in November, this race had shaped up as a the GOP establishment versus the Tea Party Republicans. In fact, just last night Charles Krauthammer called a vote for O’Donnell as irresponsible. Well according to a recent report, it turns out that the establishment — in this case the NRSC – won’t be funding O’Donnell’s campaign.

Update Below: Christine O’Donnell: “I’m Not Counting On The NRSC To Win”

    If true, they are making a big mistake. She will get plenty of funding from people all around the country, myself included. I don’t contribute to the NRSC anyway. If the head of that committee, my senator, John Cornyn, doesn’t straighten up, he might be looking for a new job in a couple of years.

    The constant attacks on good looking conservative republican women is getting old. It is really get old from establishment republicans.
    I have heard nothing about O’Donnell that is illegal.
    My guess is that her democrat opponent has a past too. My guess is because it is a democrat state that he has not been vetted and has been able to slide by. My guess he has voted for the Obama agenda.

    Rove and the other republicans had better get on board because the train is leaving the platform.

  • murf

    Screw the NRSC, Karl Rove , and the rest of the establishment. You’re either with us or against us , either way, we WILL prevail in November.

    I rather lose with a Conservative than win with a RINO .

  • chucken

    Bullshit! Howard Fineman a real political insider who talks with the real power brokers with the Republican Party said the GOP will fund O’Donnell and campaign for her because she is one of them and the GOP can’t take back the Senate without her winning.Mike Castle would have had cake walk in November but she could lose so the GOP honchos are already sending a team to DE.

  • http://TheDividedStatesBlog.com Publius219

    These women are not elected based upon qualifications. Well, I shouldn’t use such a broad brush. O’Donnell and Palin are not popular because of their policy know-how or track records. It is their looks. The same reason Fox has at least 1 hot woman on almost every program. Given the other criteria that people use to vote nowadays, I suppose looks isn’t any better or worse. They’re all just stupid.

    If you don’t know shit about public policy or the world around you, please remember to vote on November 4th.

  • chucken

    This is why Dan Abrams got his ass fired from MSNBC.This story makes no sense.Whatever you think about O’Donnell she won fair and square.And all the GOP cares about is the number 51 seats in the Senate.

    I agree. Down with all the DC RINOS. Rove is among the worst of RINOS.

    You can tell that she is a Republican: she is attractive.

    Subtract Odonnell’s executive experience from Palin and you still have both being more qualified than Obama.

    Yo Colby, is this report just more of your delusional Leftist inspired wishful thinking?

    Or, do you have some hard evidence that “the NRSC – won’t be funding O’Donnell’s campaign”?

  • Bill Mahwer

    Why elect a RINO even if you win they will support Obama. So a vote for a RINO is a vote for Obama and that is what you are seeing.

    And, if Colby pulled this crap out of his arse, Abrams better send him packing.

    This is just too big of a story to screw with, like some jejune Leftist child.

    You folks are hilarious! You really don’t even CARE about who the candidate is, or what their platforms are.

    Sarah says “Vote for Her”…and you do what Sarah says.

    You can then go back to blaming racism for every failure you experience.

  • TfT

    Lets remember the NRSC put their support behind Specter over Toomey back when, and where did that get them?

    O’Donnel doesn’t need the NRSC, and if they are so blind, they don’t need our support.

    Fool me once shame on you, fool me twice shame on me.

    The NRSC will come around once they realize this position is untenable.

  • roxsteady

    44% of Mike Castle voters have said they’re going to support Chris Coons…..THE DEMOCRAT! HA! Thanks teabaggers. We’re over at the kos laughing at you!

    NRSC, Karl Rove, John Cornyn: A lurching, undead bunch of creepy old fossils who don’t care what the voters want. They are useless. Now cute Christy must campaign against the Democrats and the old blood-sucking Republicans. But she can win.

    Indeed.

    But, IF it’s a “rumor”, with nothing whatsoever to substantiate the claim, Colby & every other so called “professional journalist” (if there is any such thing anymore) should report it as a rumor, then try to track down some substance to back the rumor up.

    So, I repeat, if Colby pulled this crap out of his arse, Abrams better send him packing.

    By the way, here one more of Palin backed candidate from tonight’s results:

    Ehrlich 76% (Winner)
    113,530
    Murphy 24% (Palin)
    36,134

    You folks had better hope that Palin backed Ayotte who is the GOP favored pick wins. So far she’s down about 2,000 votes to the teabagger Lamontagne!

    Here’s the word from your favorite faux news outlet

    “Fox gets official word from their bosses at the GOP:
    Republican aides told Fox News Tuesday that the National Republican Senatorial Committee will not be funding O’Donnell’s general election campaign, leaving it up to Palin and the Tea Party Express to do the heavy lifting.”

    Not so fast. So far the only one reporting this as an after the election fact, is Colby. And he might be drunk. Or, delusional. Again.

    We’ll know the truth soon enough, but until then let’s try not to act like just another bunch of irrational knee jerk Liberals. Especially when the report is coming from an “irrational knee jerk Liberal”.

    I have never made a political contribution in my life but I am so angry at the NRSC’s decision to not support a Tea Party candidate, Christine O’Donnell, that I make a comittment to send a check for $100 to whoever runs against John Cornyn and anyone who runs against other Republicans who refuses to support her. We will drive you RONOS out of office. We conservatives are mad as hell and would rather rather lose an election with a Conservative than win with a RINO . Screw you, Karl Rove & Newt Gingrich.

  • chucken

    Like Al Franken on the left who is the devils bastard child(and that is one of the nice things conservatives say about him).Christine O’Donnell who will justly in my opinion get savaged by the left for her views should get great kudos for taking a huge risk for running for the US Senate.You gotta be tough to put up with all the shit you will get.And yeah you will see her former campaign manager doing a Caslte ad slamming O”Donnell as a cheap sleazy money grubbing phony.

  • felixw

    The Left is making a big mistake thinking it can counter the tea party with ridicule, while ignoring the red hot tea party issues of government accountability, fiscal responsibility and individual freedom. These will be the driving factors in the November election, and the Democrats think they can laugh them off like they are a big joke. I assure you they won’t be laughing quite so hard on November 3.

    This decision really underscores the lack of confidence the GOP must have in her as a candidate. I personally don’t think any Tea Bagger candidate has a chance come midterm, and I have a feeling that by and large the Republicans agree.

    I also wanted to point out how I am tired of how these comment sections distill into sexist comments when female political figures are involved. It’s fine if you mention their aesthetics within a larger opinion, but I have noticed that Tea Baggers are really hung up on the base aspects of a woman. Fat Megyn McCain, O’Donnell is a Republican because you find her attractive, Maddow is somehow irrelevant because she doesn’t conform to the traditional ideal of a woman, etc. Along with the racism and lack of being informed, the Tea Baggers have really been revealing themselves for the simple thinkers they are (generally).

    One thing to keep in mind here.

    1. O’Donnell’s actually running for office.

    2. Maddow and M. McCain aren’t (so far).

    I didn’t think it would happen so fast, but we’re actually seeing the Republican Party implode right before our eyes. When you have the evil genius, Karl Rove castigating the Teabaggers and the RNC refusing to support O’Donnell, you know the end is near. For many years now the Republicans have given us the most flawed leaders and it was inevitable that it would eventually lead to their demise. The tipping point was John McCain’s desperate placing of Sarah Palin as his running mate. Dear rightwingers, please look into your heart of all hearts and ask yourself what would have happened if McCain had been elected and was unable to fill out his term. Please, get honest. America can no longer afford to have tenth rate people running this country. Look what happened with Bush II. What I find so disheartening is the inability of rightwingers to face up to reality. We’re in big trouble and while Obama is no avatar, he’s probably the best we can do right now and your total rejection of him and the Democratic Party has put you in a race to the bottom and, guess what, you’re almost there. Now, what are you going to do? Where can you run? The crux of your problem is that you’ve done so much to delegitimize government that you stand, like Ron and Rand Paul, for no government, which is anarchy. It would be great if some of you can wake up to the fact that government can be a force for good in our lives, especially if we get intelligent, well-intentioned people running things. This is simple minded stuff, but it is the truth. Get with it.

    None of us care if the Republican party implodes. The rise of conservatism is all that matters and if the Republican party doesn’t get with it, see ya.

    What name will you be using on Nov 3rd? Since you’ve been throwing that BS around for a while now. I doubt if you’re wrong you’re going to come back under felixw. Maybe one of your many sockpuppets.

    One thing I don’t need to worry about is Nov. 3rd. Sorry I can’t say the same for ideologues like you.

    Of course you would say that. It’s because she is a Christian, right? That makes her so extreme! Get used to it Nachi. Yup.

    The constant attacks on good looking conservative republican women is getting old. It is really get old from establishment republicans.
    I have heard nothing about O’Donnell that is illegal.
    My guess is that her democrat opponent has a past too. My guess is because it is a democrat state that he has not been vetted and has been able to slide by. My guess he has voted for the Obama agenda.

    Rove and the other republicans had better get on board because the train is leaving the platform.

    Excuses and bullshit!!!! She’s f*cking crazy and everybody knows it except for you. It has nothing to do with “good looking conservative republican women” it’s about you defending the indefensible. You defend a woman who has no idea what the bush doctrine is and tried to get books banned. Now you defend somebody with a history of financial f*ck-ups arguing that she’ll show washington about fiscal responsibility.
