Pennsylvania Republicans in Turmoil

The Pennsylvania Republican Party is coming apart at the seams. After last week's election debacles: losing leaders Bob Jubilerer, Chip Brightbill and Dennis Leh, losing the special Senate election in once deep red Chester County, then the resignation of State Chair Eileen Melvin, the newest wacky policy statements from Lynn Swann (yup, just what we need here, a failed Prop 13) the PA GOP is becoming the poster child for dysfunctional political parties.

There is a battle in Montgomery County for the Republican Chair slot in light of their repeated election defeats the past two years. The Berks County GOP Chair was named one of the five worst chairs in the state by PoliticsPA last year. Now, in light of the bath they took at the polls last week their state Chair has resigned. All this coming as we head into the fall's Senate race and Congressional contests. Things don't look good for the GOP in Pennsylvania this year. As more and more people are awakening to the failures of conservatism, especially in the White House, they are voting for Democrats. This has turned Republicans against each other. It's like watching a shark pack turn on each other. Great sport to watch from the safety of a ship's deck. Anyone have some fresh meat to throw over the side to keep them fighting?
