Mass. Republican Party is Inept

The Following was sent to the "Executive" leadership of the Massachusetts Republican Party. The Letter to the Editor was submitted to the Boston Globe, the Boston Herald, and the Springfield Republican.


What you did in this recent election is unforgivable. FYI, Following is my Letter to the Editor that was submitted to several publications. Until you come down from your elitism, LISTEN to the people of the state, and take on a DRAMATIC new direction and new leadership the Massachusetts Republican Party will be destined for continuing failure. As just one example I had sent a proposal and letters to your Chairman, Jennifer Nassour. I did not even receive the courtesy of a response. Unfortunately this is all too typical and reflects how out of touch that you are.

Letter to the Editor

It was a major failure of the Massachusetts Republican Party not to be able to defeat an unpopular Deval Patrick for governor. In fact the entire state-wide Republican ticket and the nine Congressional challengers lost while Republicans across the nation made huge gains. Charlie Baker was a "hybrid" candidate and did not give the people of the state a clear and distinct choice. He stated that he was "to the left of Obama on social issues" and then campaigned that way as a "Republican"! In addition to that, there were serious questions about his past involvement with the Big Dig financing plan, as well his involvement with the healthcare insurance industry.

The election of Scott Brown as US Senator showed that not only Republicans in the state of Massachusetts, but traditional Democrats, Independents, and Libertarians, were open for a change. The mood of the nation was also crying for a change and it did happen throughout the country in the recent elections. Not in Massachusetts. Primarily due to the ineptness of the Massachusetts Republican Party who sit in isolation in their ivory tower in Boston, the state remains in the quagmire of a one party state. Until there is a dramatic change in both the direction and leadership of the Massachusetts Republican Party the state is destined to remain a one party state.
