RINO-ectomy
Recent events have highlighted the need for the Republican Party to take a closer look at what they stand for. Perhaps the most prominent example took place in New York State’s 23rd congressional district. Republican John McHugh resigned the seat to become Obama’s Secretary of the Army leading to a runoff election. The New York Republicans chose “moderate” Dede Scozzafava to run on the Republican ticket. Never one to miss the opportunity to get in front of the camera, Newt Gingrich endorsed Scozzafava with his fellow Republicans; House Minority Leader John Boehner, Minority Whip Eric Cantor, National Republican Congressional Committee Chairman Pete Sessions, and Representative Kevin McCarthy, who is in charge of recruiting GOP candidates to run next year. The Republicans also reportedly spent nearly $1 million on her campaign.
