Broward Republicans do hold lively meetings.
The party’s State Committeeman Richard DeNapoli accused local GOP Sergeant of Arms Ben Bennett of calling the cops on him during a recent Lauderdale Beach Club meeting, according to an e-mail he sent to party activists over the weekend.
The incident was said to be the latest in an alleged witch hunt by Broward Republican Chair Robert “Bob” Sutton. The party boss reportedly wants to get rid of dissidents from the party organization.
My take:
Republicans should spend more time on trying to win elections and less time on these inner party shenanigans. They only serve to weaken the GOP.
What happened to the Big Tent Republicanism?
If the situation is as DeNapoli describes, it is outrageous. If the time of law enforcement agencies are being wasted by dragging them into a foolish squabble based largely on personalities is not only disgraceful, it is unlawful making false reports.
DeNapoli did not give his e-mail to Browardbeat.com. It was forwarded by another Republican.
