Some College Republicans regret donors were "misled"
http://seattletimes.nwsource.com/html/localnews/2002096448_republicans20m.html

Some College Republicans say the national group's fund-raising tactics have "regretfully misled senior citizens" and want to immediately sever ties to the company that runs its direct-mail campaign.

Critics on the board of the College Republican National Committee worry the group could suffer "irreparable damage in the press, and leave the organization open to future litigation," according to a resolution prepared for a board meeting today in New Orleans.

2. Oh boo hoo
Crocodile tears. The CRNC has been using Response Dynamics for years. Response Dynamics also does direct-mail scare mailings for the Moonies (Gary Jarmin's American Federation of Senior Citizens among others) and other less than savory outfits. The CRNC itself is the breeding ground for all that is wrong with American politics today and has produced such notables as Karl Rove.

3. When you have a "Win at all costs" mentality, this will happen.
Even if you proclaim yourself the party of "moral values."
