Below is an email from Executive Director Jim Saring addressed to all endorsed State Committee candidates regardng the arrival of the first Republican Club mailing piece: …
So fellow Montgomery County Republicans: Are you tired of all of this winning? If you were a Republican candidate in the municipal elections last fall, are you forever grateful for MCRC’s efforts on your behalf? Or are you, like me, like so many I have talked to, utterly surprised at the level of energy and …
I arrived at the 4/16 Township meeting a couple minutes late on purpose: I specifically wanted to avoid John Pearson’s tedious recitation of his handpicked passage from Chicken Soup for the Soul.
