Golden RINO Award - State Senator Bob Spada

Boys & girls it's that time again!

King's Right Site is handing out another - Senator George Voinovich "Golden RINO Award."


The recepient of this award must show their RINOesque abilities go above and beyond when they slap conservative politics in the face - much like the the man the award is named after. Todays winner not only slaps conservative politics in the face - he gives us a swift kick in our conservative buckeyes!

This well earned Senator George Voinovich "Golden RINO Award" goes to none other then a card carrying member of the RINO Party of Cuyahoga County - state Senator Bob Spada!

From the PD --

In a move that scrambles Republican plans to hold the Ohio House, a pair of GOP lawmakers appear on their way to ending their election campaigns and landing government posts offered by the Democratic governor.

Meanwhile, Republican sources are saying that state Sen. Bob Spada, a North Royalton Republican, will end his bid for the 18th District House seat to take a seat on the state employment relations board.

The sources are correct. Hauling back with his foot Spada delivers the swift kick in our conservative buckeyes by backing out of a race he would have easily won. Spada, who I am sure most of the rank & file RPCC members have been told is a great guy, a good party guy and the best thing sinced sliced bread, but Spada shows his true colors by saying screw the party.

Earlier this week, Dark Knight posted this...

This shows how weak the GOP has become not only on the local level, but also on the state level. When you have unprincipled candidates who will sell out to the highest bidder rather than fight for a seat this is what you get. Great candidate recruitment! Kiss the State House goodbye RINO's! Hold on tight kids, it's gonna be a bumpy November.

While some people are trying to say this was a desperate move by Rev. Ted, it is not! It was a stroke of political brillance not seen in Ohio for quite some time. Because of Spada, the human cure for insomnia (if you have ever heard him speak you know what I mean), we will most likely lose control of the Ohio House.

Thanks Bob... Great party guy you are - Senator RINOvich will be over to help you polish your horn!

The Democrat gift that keeps on giving - More Republican Party of Cuyahoga County Officers give to Democrats

Some of the RPCC "Social Club" members are beginning to realize how useless and inept Rob Frost has been as Chairman of the Republican Party of Cuyahoga County.

My email was flooded after making the "Frosty the Melting RPCC Chairman" post. Many, in fact ALL, of the emails expressed support for outing the hypocrisy of our non-performing, $100,000 a year, delusional chairman, but there were two that need to be singled out.

The first email I want to single out is from long time RPCC member who is highly regarded within the "Social Club." Seeing through Frost's facade of effectiveness, this now former, RPCC "Social Club" member stated...

...even though the truth hurts, we have been ignoring it for way too long. You are right, the "Social Club" mentality is destroying the RPCC and needs to cease immediately.

I was floored in learning that almost every officer in our party has donated & supported democrats far beyond a 'token' gesture for business reasons. Seeing that our chairman, by ignoring this, supports & rewards this kind of behavior is why, in good concious and with a heavy heart, I can no longer support Rob Frost as our chairman.

Mr. King, if you decide to take action against the people listed, you now have my support. Searching the links provided in your post I confirmed your allegations and found a couple other members you may overlooked. I submit the following....

• Matt Cox (former Executive Director, Chair of Political Operations Committee, Vice-Chair of Budget Committee). Has given $750 to Tim Degeeter and $150 to John Boccieri (who is the Dem candidate to replace retiring Congressman Ralph Regula).
  
• Mike Caputo (Chair of Budget Committee) gave $500 to Degeeter.

The money to Degeeter is particularly bothersome (to me). At best, he faces token opposition, so he's able to use that money and give it to the House Dem Caucus or spend it to help out Dems in other races.

The second email I want to single out is as equally disturbing as our delusional chairman.

Much to the chagrin of others helping to expose our delusional chairman, I have long suggested that the integrity and motives of one of the people originally thought to be helping us clean up our party are suspect.

Taking heat, I have clearly & repeatedly stated this individual cannot be trusted, is more concerned about personal, monetary and political gain. Not to mention that this person has shown their political acumen is completely non-existent.

King, be advised that there is a rat among your ranks!

I support your efforts and feel obligated to inform you a certain female from the west side is trying to undermine your efforts for personal gain.

Seeing his support is dwindling fast, Frosty the Melting Chairman (I love that name!)has reached out to this female with promises of an appointment on a committee in exchange for her support and the bloc of central committe votes she can deliver.

In no uncertain terms, this female was strongly in favor of leadership change to the point she was actively trying to recruit a replacement for Frost. She was also adamant in exposing these donations too Democrats by party officers. She was so upset that she requested ORP Vice-Chairman Kevin DeWine to remove Dave Gunning from his newly elected position as State Central Committee for the 21st Senate District.

So, for a measely appointment to satisfy her ego, she too is willing to sell out people she represents in her Senate District & fellow members of the RPCC.

Talk about integrity and being a hypocrite!
