Ramesh – Yes and no. Sure the party can make prudential calls about where best to spend its limited resources. But the responses from Castle, the Delaware GOP and the RNC to one degree or another sound more spiteful than considered. Castle won’t endorse the Republican nominee? That sounds like spite. The RNC won’t wait to see how things look when the smoke clears before deciding to cut her loose? That sounds like spite. You make a fine point about the party establishment responding in kind to those who declare war on it. But, it’s not like the party establishment (already an overused term, I think) has some independent claim to authority or legitimacy. It is supposed to represent the party rank and file, right? It might be management, but management should not dismiss shareholder revolts out of hand, no matter how human the desire to do exactly that may be.
