Bret Schundler was an excellent Mayor and the RINO’s refusal to support him wholeheartedly was a huge mistake.
It wasn’t a “mistake” per se, he refused to be part of the machinery and they destroyed him, it was wholly intentional. They don’t care about winning.
My friend is friends with a mayor of a town I won’t mention, these guys are getting rich, he has now switched “parties” to “Republican”.
