To Spectator Readers:

Brian Walsh, spokesman for the National Republican Senatorial Committee, responded to my posting on the Christine O’Donnell charge, made live and on-air to Sean Hannity on his radio show, that the NRSC was being less than supportive of her campaign.

Mr. Walsh has responded on behalf of Senator John Cornyn, the Senator from Texas who is Chairman of the NRSC— twice. As promised, we are publishing his response verbatim. This post is NSRC response # 1. NSRC Response # 2 will run as a separate post. 

Hi Jeffrey — I just saw your note below and wonder why you didn’t take a moment to contact the Committee yourself before printing it? Could you tell me why?

Would also be curious for your thoughts on which Republican candidate should be receiving less money — Ken Buck? Joe Miller? Rand Paul? Pat Toomey? These are all very close races where the NRSC is currently investing money. Are you suggesting national Republicans should abandon those races and send that money to Delaware instead? It’s a fair question. Also you missed this story on the AP wire this afternoon -

But needless to say your piece below [O’Donnell on Hannity: NRSC Sabotage of Her Campaign?] is inaccurate on several fronts. Will you be willing to update with a response?

Now , This Is Personal Walsh .

Cough Up The Support For Our Tea Party Candidate RINO-CINO Walsh or We'll Hand You and Your NRSC RINO-CINO's Your Asses , Just Like We Handed Castle His RINO-CINO Ass .

" The debate featured lots of fire and brimstone. Coons went after O’Donnell in his opening statement, saying some of her policy positions are “extreme” for Delaware. O’Donnell returned the sentiment, saying of her opponent, “if you’ve ever questioned whether America is a beacon of freedom and justice, then he’s your guy.”

I don't understand why Sarah Palin, Michelle Bachman and others aren't helping Christine O'Donnel. She has been savaged by the liberal media, just as Sarah Palin was/is - O'Donnell knows the issues, presents them well - while Coons comes off as a bully - but because Karl Rove, Charles Krauthammer and other prominent Republicans trashed O'Donnell right from the beginning, it looks like she is going to lose - bar a miracle - let's hope for a miracle!

They might be having some cash problems because too many people are doing what I have done and refused to donate directly to the National Senatorial and House Campaign Committees and donate instead directly to the candidate.

I recommend that approach.

'I don't understand why Sarah Palin, ...and others aren't helping Christine O'Donnel"

Sarah Palin did endorse Christine O'Donnell. I heard her on Sean Hannity's radio show.

"In Delaware, Palin endorsed Christine O'Donnell five days before her primary bid against well-respected Mike Castle, who was widely seen as the favorite to win."

We at The Freedomist have been covering this Cornyn-NRSC debacle. Pat Toomey is securely ahead, as is Rand Paul. Christine O'Donnell gets seated IMMEDIATELY. It is THE MOST important race in the whole election. A win here could kill the Obama effort to cram his leftist fascism through the Lame Duck Congress.
