National Republican Senatorial Campaign Committee Chairman Sen. John Cornyn told reporters that Delaware's Senate race still does not appear to be competitive for the GOP thanks to Christine O'Donnell. TPM spoke briefly with Cornyn following an event at the National Press Club Thursday, and asked about O'Donnell's recent snafu with her education history and how serious of a problem he deems that to be. Rather than defend her, Cornyn spoke generally. "All of those issues are litigated in every single campaign, obviously being candid and truthful is important, but I don't know enough about the details," Cornyn told TPM. "I'm not stating an opinion on that particular report, I'm just talking generally." Cornyn (R-TX) repeated his line from primary night when O'Donnell defeated Rep. Mike Castle that the NRSC must make "hard decisions about how to allocate resources." "It's no secret that I believed Mike Castle would have won that race handily," Cornyn said. "We will be supporting Christine O'Donnell as appropriate if that race is competitive. Right now it looks like it is not as competitive as other places around the country."

Maher has hinted at having another doozy to show tonight as well.
I wonder if he realizes what he just said? He said that O'Donnell was more popular with the Republican voters than the hand-picked RNC candidate,while implying at the same time that she is a crackpot who is out of touch with American voters. My question is that if this is true,what does it say about the RNC and their hand-picked candidate that this woman beat them? RINO Central might want to take a look in the mirror.

Having Bill Maher as a critic is the best thing that could happen to her. If it is true that you are known by who your enemies are,this speaks highly of her.

Exactly. Only the hardcore leftwingnuts watch his boring show...the one's that can afford HBO anyway.
Obama's first all-by-his-lonesome budget, btw, calls for a $1.17 trillion deficit.
I would think having OReilly as one's biggest cheerleader would really put the hex on one's political career.
What are you talking about? OReilly has him and Stewart on, strutting their stuff, every evening.
Yep, that's the impact of the tea party on the GOP - they run with nutty candidates who appeal to their nutty base, but who are having trouble getting elected in the general (see NY-23).
Nope, Maher has controlled her message for the last few weeks, each week there's some new revelation from her nutty past. Republicans need to make this race a referendum on Democrats to win, she can't do that when she's constantly defending her own lies, fraud, illegal activities, and kookiness.
That must explain why Bill O'Reilly aired a two part interview with Maher this week, he must have wanted to drive away viewers instead of attract them.
I don't think it would help much,but no way in hell does it nullify the Maher condemnation.

Give me a break! That is NY you are talking about. Karl Marx would have a hard time getting elected there because they would consider him to be a right-winger. We are talking about America,not NY.

Uh,huh. Tell me,ain't it tough to type with your fingers and eyes crossed?

People slow down to view train wrecks,too. Call it a morbid fascination with the disgusting.

We are talking about America,not NY. Republicans vote in Republican primaries. Independents and democrats vote in the general. To win the general you have to pull not only your base, but independents. O'Donnell can't do that, in fact she can't even pull much of her own base.
Sometimes,not always. Some states have open primaries,and the Dims are well known for having voters switch registrations in order to vote for the worse Republican they can find on the ballot in the primaries,and then vote Dim in the general election.

you mean like Project Chaos?
I don't know. I've never heard of it.

Limbaugh's attempt to get Hillary elected in the primaries as the Dem candidate using crossover voters.
When? You haven't shown the ability here.
He demonstrated just how fucked up Maher's statements are. The number of false statements Maher threw up, and got flung back in his face was staggering. O'Reilly is the top dog in cable news. He did Maher a favor, and got the beat that hypocrites ass in front of 3 million viewers as an added bonus. Personally, I changed the channel for last nights 2nd segment. It was too much like watching somebody pull the wings off of a fly. btw...what does this have to do with the fact that few actually see Maher's show on HBO?
Obama's first all-by-his-lonesome budget, btw, calls for a $1.17 trillion deficit.
fixed that for you.
More Alan Grayson channelling, huh? Don't waste my time like this, GO.
Obama's first all-by-his-lonesome budget, btw, calls for a $1.17 trillion deficit.
That he is bi-sexual? A moron? An idiot? A wanker?
I can't say I've ever thought about Maher's sexuality. I'm not sure why it concerns you though.
That is the most intelligent statement you have made to date, gopher.
Thanks, maybe some day you'll make an intelligent statement and I can return the complement. :-)
You morons just can't help yourselves, can you? CHORTLE
And the Conservative plan to create jobs is......?????
