Republican Revolt: Ellis County's Huge Day @ GOP Convention

There are so many good things to report it's almost too much to type...but, here it goes:
1. State Republican Executive Committee (SREC) member for Senate District 22 (that's ours), Chris DeCluitt, lost re-election Saturday to Jimmy Kerr of China Spring, a Tea Party-backed candidate who is sick of the corruption in McLennan County GOP politics. DeCluitt was knocked out of the heirship of the State Senate when this blog and several other key ingredients unearthed, exposed and reported the Brazos River Authority scandal. DeCluitt's loss Saturday was a huge blow to the SREC...

2. SREC female member (each senate district has two representatives on the GOP committee, a male and a female) Janet Jackson defeated Molly Smith.
SD-22 is now represented at the state level with true conservatives! And, what's by far the best news of all:
3. Cathie Adams, appointed to the chairmanship after Tina Benkiser stepped down to take a position with the Rick Perry campaign, lost to former Ron Paul staffer (and The Ellis County Observer endorsed) Steve Munisteri in the race for GOP chairman. HUGE win for those who love the Constitution side of the GOP.

4. County Doll Judge Carol Bush was appointed secretary of something, according to spies on the convention floor, who saw her sitting at a table doing nothing but looking gorgeous.

5. I was appointed chairman of the Republican Liberty Caucus of Texas. Total shock and unexpected nomination from several longtime RLC activists. The RLC is the "Tea Party" wing of the Republican Party. We were promoting the Constitutional Conservatives way, way, way back when...
All in all, I think Ellis County has definitely taken a stand in the political arena, or has had a direct impact on much of what's going on in our state. This is going to be an interesting year...
