Re: National GOP to Back Specter

Not to put too fine a point on it, but Cornyn now should do what Cheney told Leahy to do.

It is long past time for the national committees to stay out of direct involvement in primary battles. And why does it always seem that the committees work AGAINST the more conservative candidates?

Cornyn has been Beltwayed. Another one bites the dust. Again, he ought to go Leahy himself. Somebody, please quote me on this.

How the national party can support Specter after he has repeatedly voted with the Dems on critical votes is beyond me.

I used to contribute to theRNC, RNCC, RNSC but no more.

The Pork bill passed because of 3 votes the budget passed with the same help.

If the National committees thinks that the way back to majority reqiires support of the likes of Specter I must become more dilligent in my search for a party to represents me...

Enough is enough...

Looking to join a Conservative political partycommited to govern and lead based on conservative values and principles ... in return I am willing to contribute time and money, will call, organize and vote.

Note to self: Contributions to GOP = support for RINO. I'll file the next request for chizzange in the same file with the last one I received from the then desperate Senator McCain.

The Democrats will cut off any congressman who strays too far from the farm. Spector and his partners in crime repeatedly stab Republicans in the back in matters great and small. And we reward him!!!

Maybe, at least in this way, the Democrats got it right.
