Cornyn should have addressed the misinformation from last night if it was indeed misinformation. He and the NRSC have been hurt by this.

So damned what.
The apparatchiks of the GOP, at all levels, need to be rooted out and politically exterminated. The leftists accuse us [Republicans] of pogroms, booting out people that don’t toe the party line; well, now we need to start doing just that. We need to get them out of supporting organizations, like the RNC, out of Congress, out of city, county and state boards, etc. They want to antagonize the Tea Party? Good. Sew the wind, reap the whirlwind. Again, let the current power structure ‘wither on the vine’. Choke out these turncoat liberals (RINOs), by choking off their power supply (money). Support candidates directly, and cut the power-hungry, craven quislings out of the picture, forever. If they want to stay in politics, they can join the American Democratic Socialist Party with the rest of the worshipers of cowardice, slavery and power over others.

This is why I stopped contributing to the GOP. I now contribute to the candidate individually instead of seeing my contribution go to the RINOs.

That’s the only way we can get the Old Guard GOP to listen…haven’t sent them any money in over a year. Mine goes directly to candidates as well. Heck, they’ll spend it more wisely…

Great!!!
Now, let’s fire the “annonymous” aides who started this firestorm and tape Karl Rove’s mouth shut!
How about Karl forking over $42,000, issuing a public apology…. no that won’t happen.

I sent an email to them last night expressing that I would never give them ONE more dime if they don’t support Christine. Guess I wasn’t the only one:)
Cornyn is a GOP party machine guy, but I guess he’s smarter than he looks…and yes, he is my Senator:(

Good for him! Although I still think some of the old guard are fighting it.
This is an email I received today from the National Republican Trust:
September 15, 2010
The Election Clock is Ticking Away
These 25 MINUTES will SAVE our future!
Dear GOP Trust Supporter:
We just entered the final weeks of what could prove to be the most historic election of our lifetime. You and I have less than fifty days to decide if Conservatives and Tea Partiers retake the country OR if we will allow the establishment to prevail.
And the stakes just got even higher: The Republican Party announced last night that they refuse to support Christine O’Donnell, the Conservative Tea Party candidate that crushed the liberal Republican establishment candidate for Senate in Delaware.
Conservatives spoke loud and clear and now have a real opportunity to return Joe Biden’s seat to the American people but the national party rejects the Tea Party and will boycott this race because their insider lost.
We predicted the establishment Republicans would abandon us. Now it’s up to us and we must all do all we can to help O’Donnell win this election; We are the REPUBLICANS YOU CAN TRUST to support Pro-America candidates, regardless of what the establishment Republicans do or say.

Ok, if it was an anonymous source that said the NRSC would not support O’Donnell, then who reported it first?
***UPDATE*** at the bottom.
Ed Morrissey writes that John Cornyn has come out this morning and said Christine O’Donnell has the full support of the NRSC, including a check for $42,000:
Let there be no mistake: The National Republican Senatorial Committee – and I personally as the committee’s chairman – strongly stand by all of our Republican nominees, including Christine O’Donnell in Delaware.
I reached out to Christine this morning, and as I have conveyed to all of our nominees, I offered her my personal congratulations and let her know that she has our support. This support includes a check for $42,000 – the maximum allowable donation that we have provided to all of our nominees – which the NRSC will send to her campaign today.
I wondered if the NRSC had changed their mind or if it was actually misreported, so I asked Ed Morrissey on twitter about it. He replied:
It was an anonymous source in the NRSC last night, which almost certainly was NOT Cornyn.
Good for John Cornyn for making the right decision and extending their full support to O’Donnell. The Tea Party wins again!

UPDATE: Cornyn – NRSC Aides Don’t Speak For Me:
Sen. John Cornyn, R-Texas, made one thing clear Wednesday, those aides in his National Republican Senatorial Committee office did not speak for him when they told Fox and other news organizations that Delaware GOP primary winner Christine O’Donnell would receive no help from his group.
“You’ve now come straight to the horse’s mouth. I don’t know what those statements were. They didn’t come from me,” Cornyn said emphatically and promising O’Donnell in a personal phone call that a $42,000 check was on its way.
“I congratulated her this morning, and I told her as the nominee of the Republican party, she would get the unqualified support of the National Republican Senatorial Committee,” Cornyn recounted, adding that he also invited O’Donnell to Washington later this week for meetings to figure out how the NRSC can do more, particularly in the fundraising department, an area where O’Donnell definitely could use some help.
But Cornyn would not go so far as to predict that O’Donnell can win against New Castle County Executive Chris Coons, the Democrat in the race. “I don’t know. I don’t know. A lot of people thought she could not win last night. She did win against a very popular congressman, so I wouldn’t underestimate her a bit.”
