The timing couldn’t be worse for many of these first-time Republican candidates. At a time when the Republican party is taking the brunt of criticism for the growing economic crisis, many of their candidates are ill-equipped financially to respond to the barrage of DCCC attacks.
And as the GOP needs to allocate more money to a growing crop of vulnerable GOP incumbents, less money will be available to assist the party’s best-and-brightest candidates, who are most in need of the financial boost.
