Shellshocked House Republicans got warnings from leaders past and present Tuesday: Your party�s message isn�t good enough to prevent disaster in November, and neither is the NRCC�s money.
The double shot of bad news had one veteran Republican House member worrying aloud that the party�s electoral woes � brought into sharp focus by Woody Jenkins� loss to Don Cazayoux in Louisiana on Saturday � have the House Republican Conference splitting apart in �everybody for himself� mode.
�There is an attitude that, �I better watch out for myself, because nobody else is going to do it,�� the member said. �There are all these different factions out there, everyone is sniping at each other, and we have no real plan. We have a lot of people fighting to be the captain of the lifeboat instead of everybody pulling together.�
...
And in a closed-door session at the Capitol, National Republican Congressional Committee Chairman Tom Cole (R-Okla.) told members that the NRCC doesn�t have enough cash to �save them� in November if they don�t raise enough money or run strong campaigns themselves.
