 GREETINGS PATRIOTS

Next Tuesday, June 25, the 72 board of directors (State Central) of the CT Republican Party will vote to either retain the current mediocre party chairman or select a much better choice for the future. For us there is only one clear choice. That is Ron Wilcox. I could never improve on Bob MacGuffie’s words, so I forward Bob’s endorsement with my own second.

Connecticut Patriots:

Next Tuesday a vote will be taken to determine who will be the next Chairman of the CT Republican Party. We are trying to get a seasoned solid conservative elected to that post, which will represent a reinvigoration of the Party and a re-establishment of the Party on the conservative principles of limited government, individual liberty and free-market economics.

That candidate is Ron Wilcox of Newtown. Ron is a life-long CT resident and Republican who has promoted and fought for these principles all his adult life. He has demonstrated and proven his belief in our principles, and has the business experience and political savvy to lead the state party. Following is a link to a brief presentation of his ideas for the party which were delivered in Barkhamsted on Monday, June 17.

Connecticut Republican Party Chair Candidate: Ron Wilcox

Seventy two state central members, two from each of the state's 36 senatorial districts, are the electors who cast the ballots. A list of the state central members at this link

Choose the one from your town (or the nearest neighboring town) and click on the e-mail link and ask that member to cast their vote for Ron Wilcox. If you want the Republican Party to be led by a solid conservative, and again stand on principle, please send that e-mail.
Thanks so much.

In liberty,
Bob MacGuffie

Pomfret Center: Last Monday three of the four invited Republican legislators attended a town hall meeting hosted by local RTCs. For the 2nd time Senate Minority Leader, John McKinney was absent. Most of the public crowd had hoped to express their anger about the new gun law that Mr. McKinney had abetted in collaboration with the gun-grabbing Democrats and Governor Malloy.

One man in particular spoke eloquently to the issue. Doug Cutler of Putnam.

Flag Day Friday, June 14: About 70 patriots gathered on the Southington Center Green to honor the Flag and those who fought to keep it flying. This link takes you back to that event:   http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL5wsVsNCEygpdBFhkJbRGXoANj5asCLif

If you haven’t already viewed this video of a Louisiana state senator declaring the reasons why he switched to the Republican Party, you will be very pleased. Perhaps this might portend an awakening among a large group of long-neglected Americans.

NEWT GINGRICH tried three times before he won for the first time in Georgia. Twenty years later Newt spearheaded the Freshman Revolution of 1994 in the US House of Representatives.

Mark Greenberg has launched his third bid to win Connecticut’s 5th Congressional District. Mark is a strong and reliable friend of the Tea Party and grass roots conservatives all across the state. Mark needs early-on support to help stave-off what happened in 2012. The person whom Republican Primary voters rejected by 68% won the nomination and went on to an ignominious loss to a weak Democrat opponent. The Republican candidate was rewarded for losing by Governor Malloy - getting a judicial appointment.

To help ensure Mark gets picked up on the national Republican radar he needs grass roots support in the form of donations. Not in dollars, but in numbers. So please send him $5. It will be one of the best investments you can ever make! If several people reside with you, don’t send a lump sum. Send separate contributions.

To anger a conservative, tell him a lie. To anger a liberal, tell him the truth.

It does not require a majority to prevail, but rather an irate, tireless minority keen to set brush fires in people's minds. (Samuel Adams)

Pass the matches or get out of the way…..
