There is no way this is the real story about O'Donnell canceling her meeting NRSCC Chair Cornyn

No meeting for O'Donnell and NRSC
By Shane D'Aprile - 09/17/10 03:50 PM ET

There was no meeting Friday between Delaware Senate candidate Christine O'Donnell (R) and National Republican Senate Campaign Chairman John Cornyn (R-Texas). The two were supposed to meet when O'Donnell came to Washington.

O'Donnell campaign officials said the schedules couldn't be synced but they are hoping to meet soon.

The meeting was set up to reiterate the NRSC's support for O'Donnell's campaign after her surprise win in Tuesday's primary against party-backed candidate Mike Castle (R-Del.). There were questions about how much the party would back her after the NRSC released a tepid statement following her victory. But the group quickly donated $42,000 — the maximum allowed — to her campaign, and Cornyn released a statement saying she had their backing.

O'Donnell is speaking Friday afternoon at the Value Voters Summit in Washington.

Their schedules couldn't be "synced"? The repubican civil war is underway. Pop that corn, kiddies.

2. She gets a $42,000 hit from them and can't make time to say thank you?
This is going to be interesting.

4. That $42,000 is nothing compared to the tens of millions coming from Corps
Are there enough idiots who could vote for her ?

Absolutely ....

We need a huge Get-Out-The-Vote campaign this time around .. Bigger than any other ...

7. Agree on all points - but I still think she needs the backing of the GOP and she
essentially dissed them (that's how I read it, anyway). They're over a barrel - they HAVE to back her now, but she's not "one of them". This is sweet.

3. Yeah, they'll have to wait till Cornyn stops puking his nuts up
He knows that the powers that be can blame him for this.

5. You betcha!
The powers that be fear the nutbaggers. They will try to kill the movement dead.

By the way. Has anyone seen Dick Armey lately?

6. I figure that the corporate masters will be pointing an icy finger Cornyn's way
And that makes me happy. I've been waiting for him to get his comeuppance.

Yeah, where is Armey, anyway? I was wondering about him the other day. You'd think he'd be out there bragging up a storm about the grass roots and yadda yadda. He's eerily quiet. But I can't figure what his silence means. You have any ideas?

8. Shes already done this a few times
I think she was supposed to be on Morning Joe the other day and then bailed saying that there was a scheduling conflict, she then proceeded to go on like every other cable news show. She really doesn't seem to care who she pisses off and doesn't even bother coming up with any plausible excuses. I genuinely think she might be a compulsive liar.

10. $42K is a drop in the bucket to save face from the teabaggers. I'm loving
watching what KKKarl Rove nurtured so very carefully bite hime in his pasty, overly tender ass.
