Zeldin eyeing possible bid for Republican National Committee chairman

Washington Post

Rep. Lee Zeldin (R-N.Y.), who lost a bid to be New York’s governor, is considering making a play to be chairman of the Republican National Committee, a leading adviser says.

“He’s had a number of people calling, from elected officials, from members of the RNC, quite a few people saying, ‘Would you consider running for RNC chair?’ ” John Brabender, who worked as Zeldin’s media consultant, tells The Post’s Michael Scherer. “He will certainly investigate. He was at the first a little surprised by the number of accolades he got [for his strong but losing race for governor].”

Brabender said Zeldin is “investigating” a bid for RNC chairman.

“He feels that there is a lot he can do there, and a lot that needs to be done there,” Brabender said. “He is doing the due diligence anyone would do at least if he wanted to know more.”

“He feels that there is a lot he can do there, and a lot that needs to be done there..."


Yeah, like act as pile driver for the silver stake through the heart of the beast that party has become!



Reminds me of my friend's mom who had no more fucks to give when her 4 boys were acting like assholes in the back of the car one day yelled out,

"If you don't sit down and be still I'm going to drive crazy and kill us all!"

Apparently it worked.
