The Rules Of The Republican Party As adopted by the 2004 Republican National Convention August 30, 2004
BE IT RESOLVED, That the Republican Party is the party of the open door. Ours is the party of liberty, the party of equality of opportunity for all and favoritism for none.
It is the intent and purpose of these rules to encourage and allow the broadest possible participation of all voters in Republican Party activities at all levels and to assure that the Republican Party is open and accessible to all Americans.

Although, in theory, the Politburo was elected from below, in practice, the leading members of the Politburo and, of course, Lenin were highly influential in determining the body's composition which, in the end, reflected the weight and competing influence of various individuals within the party, their allies within the Politburo and supporters outside of it.

The sad thing is that Adam could have united the party despite the fact that there are some serious differences about how the party should act.
There is the reform wing and there is the let us pretend (badly) to reform wing. Truth be told there are crazy people and vindictive people in both wings.
Someone skilled at diplomacy could have worked it out. Adam had credibility with enough people on both sides that he could have pulled it off but instead he screwed it up. The Republican party in Monmouth County is now officially FUBAR.
Thanks for the memories Adam.

Fred had the same problem.
With a party as fractured as ours, we need a sales man and a diplomat. Not a BOSS.
There is a prominent and well respected Republican who has pretty much thrown in the towel. He's telling people the Monmouth GOP has to lose power before things get better. He might be right.
He may be. But I fear that in this time of Democratic megabucks and power moguls like Norcross and Corzine, if the Monmouth GOP loses power, it's gone. Kaput. Over.

In fact, it's already started. With Barbara McMorrow's win, Monmouth County is now on the radar screen of these same Dem power moguls. They'll see to it that the big bucks roll in. They want control.
McMorrow was Victor Scudiery's first freeholder win in 18 years of chairmanship. The Demo big boys don't want to risk the crap shoot that it'll take another 18 for the next.
This is not the time for Adam to tamper with what should be a winning GOP ticket.
"We are weary of the bickering and bombast, fatigued by the posturing and self-promotion."
Gov. Mitt Romney
"Therefore, all Monmouth County Republicans should do as they are told."
Adam Puharic
"To preserve liberty, it is essential that the whole body of the people always possess arms, and be taught alike, especially when young, how to use them." (Richard Henry Lee, Virginia delegate to the Continental Congress, initiator of the Declaration of Independence, and member of the first Senate, which passed the Bill of Rights.)
"The great object is that every man be armed . . . Everyone who is able may have a gun." (Patrick Henry, in the Virginia Convention on the ratification of the Constitution.)
"The advantage of being armed . . . the Americans possess over the people of all other nations . . . Notwithstanding the military establishments in the several Kingdoms of Europe, which are carried as far as the public resources will bear, the governments are afraid to trust the people with arms." (James Madison, author of the Bill of Rights, in his Federalist Paper No. 46.)
"A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear arms, shall not be infringed." (Second Amendment to the Constitution.)
I would not be surprised to hear that the hateful and angry blogging occurring in the MCGOP has and will prevent young people from wanting to get involved with the Party. Why would they want to subject themselves to such childish and vicious public attacks using language that is unnecessary in a public forum.
Here is an example that answers the question as to why young people don’t want to work the booths at the county fair and in other voluntary positions.

Be sure to tune in tomorrow
THE SOLUTION:
NOMINATIONS - REOPEN THEM
QUESTIONNAIRES - DISPOSE OF THEM
LINCOLN DAY - CHARGE A DOLLAR
CONVENTION - ROBERTS RULES - SPEECHES FROM ALL CANDIDATES WITH A MOTION AND SECOND AND ROLL CALL APPROVAL
THE LINE - NO LINE - ALL CANDIDATES WHO OBTAIN THE NECESSARY PETITIONS AND WERE ALLOWED TO THE DAIS BY ROLL CALL OF THE COUNTY COMMITTEE ARE ON THE LINE
THOUGHTS?
anonymous...
these are things that have been suggested, debated, argued, fought for ... and always lost.
it's the same cast of characters and the same terrible way of doing business.
of course i'm no republican ...anymore.
Will,
I'm starting another series on how Monmouth's ruling Republican Party is financed.
The first post is here: http://bayshorenews.blogspot.com/2007/02/fun-with-elec.html
I'd like to ask you and your readers to keep me on my toes with comments, debate and intelligent critiques.
