The Republican Party does not deserve the derisiveness of the New Summit Republicans campaign. When asked to be on their ballot, I understood my role to be creating awareness of a need for betterment in county Republican leadership. Always believing in the need to improve our government, I welcomed this opportunity.
After a few months weighing each side of this divisive debate, I now have the final piece of the puzzle necessary to place my vote firmly with Alex Arshinkoff's leadership.
The latest attacks against Brian Daley are unconscionable. This strategic blunder may cause the Ohio Supreme Court to weigh in and stop the madness, but it does not forgive the political assassination of a fine man.
I imagine that loud voices and a great deal of "bullying" were present when our founding fathers drafted our Declaration of Independence. These same voices that are heard today evoke the passion that comes with the mantle of leadership. I rue the day when all of us in politics accept the status quo and ignore or prohibit needed change. The change we need in Summit County is for politicians to do the jobs we were elected to do.
Our citizens and communities have real problems. A state senator choosing to spend all of his time bashing the Summit County Republican Party's leadership has no time to dedicate to solving these problems. Cozying up with the Secretary of State to thwart a fair nomination by the Summit County Republican Party Executive Committee identifies the New Summit Republican's choice of leadership, whoever that may be, to be leadership I could never believe in.
Let's bury the hatchet and begin working for the people we were elected to serve.
