A rather stupid and arrogant way to state this that will cost Emineth and could damage the GOP itself. Is being a simpleton required to serve in state party chairmanships now? >>The committee members’ notable exclusion from ATR’s debate seemed to be an issue of contention for North Dakota Republican Party Chairman Gary Emineth, who, much to the ire of grassroots party activists, told The Hill, “At the end of the day, it doesn’t matter what the public thinks; it matters what 168 of us think.”<<
