Once more, he tries for relevancy from the fringe:
“He thinks everyone else is a sellout and a RINO,” said Fergus Cullen, a former chairman of the state’s Republican Party, using the acronym for Republican In Name Only. “He is absolutely a purity Republican.”
(H/T: NYT)
Unity speak, this is not (perhaps sour grapes, though). This from the guy that was the NH GOP Chair before Gov. Sununu decided to run, saw that he had NO chance at winning a second term (sorta like Jimmah Cahtah, and soon, Obama) as such, slunk away.
RINO. Indeed. He couldn’t even get elected to be a Member so as to be able to vote this past Saturday.
Ya think, Fergus, that if you weren’t SO much the pontificating squish, so obviously biased against the Conservatives in the Party in word and deed, you just might have fared a tad better? But, I will give him kudoes for speaking his mind (we do need to be reminded from time to time of his stint as NH GOP Chair and the such "sterling" results, unlike Gov. Sununu, he produced)
But I betcha he isn’t gonna get the offer to be the next Comms Dir……
- Teams up with the former Dem Chair on illegal immigration
- Didn’t fare well back in the fall on a poll concerning him running for Congress (former NH GOP Chair only got 5% approval?)
- Even back in 2009, Fergus still was on the wrong side of things ("Running under the Tea Party brand may be better in congressional races than being a Republican") – the first major poll showing that the TEA Party had won the hearts and minds of the public.
- That utterly inane campaign stunt with the road signs when the Party had pretty much no money.
Fringe, sir?
