Brian Dear went to the local Republican Party of San Diego County and has some interesting play-by-play. To me, this is great reporting — and not the kind of thing you’d get from any other local media.
I still haven’t found out who wrote the Oath originally. Out of curiosity I attended the monthly meeting of the San Diego County Republican Party last night. My hope was to understand the Republican mindset better: who attended these meetings? What were the talking points? How close to the spirit of the Oath were they? How much “liberal bashing” went on — was it going to be like Fox News?
