National Republican Senatorial Committee pulling out of Colorado
Republican sources in Colorado and Washington say that the National Republican Senatorial Committee plans to pull out of the state by next week, an acknowledgment that its independent expenditure resources would be better spent on defense elsewhere...

1. I'm thinking North Carolina.
Or even Georgia.

6. There is no senate race in Ohio.
This is the RNSC, not the RNC.

The RNSC is an organization solely for Senate races.

Edited on Fri Oct-17-08 09:39 AM by sickinohio
RNC ads that are already shown here and all of the McLame ads that are flooding the airwaves here (just a general observation).

9. Minnesota.
They are working round the clock here trying to keep Al Franken from crushing Normie Coleman. Now we'll get even more attack ads with the Colorado money. Awesome! :sarcasm:

4. That's great news. I'f like to see them pull out of OR and KY too.
I know KY is a long shot, but it would be great to get rid of Mitch McConnell.

5. No Surprise...They Need To Save Liddy's Butt
...and she was the a former chairman of the NRSC. :rofl:

John Ensign has run a horrible campaign...Schumer and the DSCC massively outraised him and recruited a bunch of solid candidates. Several weeks ago, Ensign first begged then demanded more money, it didn't happen and, for the most part, told candidates they were on their own. The DSCC money is making a big difference in North Carolina and Minnesota and my bets are whatever little money Ensign still has is gonna go to trying to save Coleman, Smith, Sununu and Dole...the rest can go pound sand.

7. Word up here in NC
is that Biddy Dole is toast. Couldn't happen to a nicer absentee slumlord. Can't wait to pack her saggin' @$$ back to Kansas.

8. I Heard She Hadn't Been There Since The 90's
She and the Viagra Man will just have to enjoy their Watergate hang and hope they still get invites to the drinkie-drinkie parties. The DSCC did a hell of a job in running up her negatives along with a strong voter registration drive that makes me feel real optimistic about Democratic chances in the Tar Heel State. It'd be nice to see it start to turn blue.

Cheers...

10. According to an opposition ad running recently
altogether since she "ascended the throne" (my words) less than about 60 days. A good portion of those have either been for paid engagements or for fundraisers. But talk to the little people, y'know, the one's she's supposed to be representing? Meh, not s'much.

We remember that -- and it's coming home to roost.
