I have spent most of the past year having to watch my back and deal with the RPP indirectly through individual members. I need to know what, if anything has changed.
I wonder why, this is so surprising that would badmouth our party at every turn and then wonder why the party doesn't support you.
Anyway, its called a compromise people. I gave up my chairmanship to see what effects it would have, but I wasn't turning over temporary power until a vote could be held to just anyone. I wanted to make srue that it was the person I trust most in this game to carry out the mission of the RPP. No one cares about the RPP other than myself more than Duke does.
The funny part, the RPP really needed me as chair more now than ever.
