At The Hill, "NRSC Backs O'Donnell, Donates $42,000" (via Memeorandum):
The NRSC backed Rep. Mike Castle and opposed Christine O'Donnell in the lead-up to Delaware's GOP primary.
The Senate Republican campaign arm on Wednesday pledged to support Christine O'Donnell, the Tea Party favorite who shocked the political establishment Tuesday by winning Delaware's GOP primary.
Sen. John Cornyn, chairman of the National Republican Senatorial Committee, spoke to O'Donnell Wednesday and told her she would have the NRSC's backing like any other Republican Senate candidate.
"Let there be no mistake: The National Republican Senatorial Committee — and I personally as the committee’s chairman — strongly stand by all of our Republican nominees, including Christine O’Donnell in Delaware," Cornyn said in a statement.
That support includes a $42,000 check, the maximum allowable direct donation to a campaign, Cornyn said.
