NRSC, Not One Dime
We received our National Republican Senate Campaign Leadership Survey in the mail today. We filled it out. We marked our choices. In the box where you put your campaign donation, we marked it, and put nine cents in the blank for the amount of the donation. We then put a nickel and four pennys onto a blank piece of paper and taped them to it, to prevent them from sliding around in the envelope. We put everything in the return envelope, and mailed it off.
Some might say that we are grandstanding, or are trying to be a smart aleck, such is not the case. We are simply trying to prove the point we made here, here, and here.
We would not be in the position today with stealth nominees to the Supreme Court if Senate Republicans had held their ground and destroyed the Democrats un-constitutional use of filibustering judicial nominees. The gang of fourteen is as much to blame for this situation as well. There were seven Republicans on that gang who should be remembered when their election comes around again.
For now all we can do is try and put some backbone into the Republican Leadership to destroy the act of filibustering judicial nominees. The best way to accomplish that is by withholding monetary support. Sooner or later they will get the message.
We would encourage everyone who gets the survey to do exactly as we have done. The message will be loud and clear.
