Haley Barbour to Dan Maes: Drop Dead

At Hot Air, a pretty stunning statement from the RGA head.

Barbour acknowledged the difficulties businessman Dan Maes (R) faces in winning election, and the RGA’s unwillingness to throw good money after bad.

“We have spent money in Colorado. Past tense,” Barbour said. …

“We practice what I call ruthless targeting. When we raise money from people in good faith, our good faith pledge is we’re going to use it where” it makes sense, Barbour said. “We don’t pay for sure winners. We don’t give to sure losers. We try to put our money where it makes a difference.”

If Barbour's saying that, I trust him. I don't know what the heck happened here or what it is that makes Maes so unlikely a winner (I know nothing of the race), but if Barbour says it, I guess that's a big thing.

Second look at... Tom Tancredo?
