The Associated Press reports some bad news for the Senate campaign of Steve Pearce:
Republicans’ Senate campaign arm called off television ads Tuesday that were to air in New Mexico in the run-up to Election Day.
The move is an indication that it’s leaving the GOP candidate, Congressman Steve Pearce, to fend for himself as the party braces for losses.
This is no surprise, really.
John Ensign, the National Republican Senatorial Committee chair, has said the Republicans "could" hold the losses this year to only three seats.
"If a race is going to win on its own, we’re not going to play," Ensign said in July. "If it’s going to lose and no chance to win, we’re not going to play."
