Blackwell Gaining Support For Leadership Job
CINCINNATI, Ohio—Ohio’s former Secretary of State has picked up some support in his effort to become chair of the Republican National Committee.
Saturday, Cincinnati’s Ken Blackwell picked up endorsements from several prominent conservatives, including Dr. James Dobson who is founder of Focus on the Family.
Other support was logged in from one-time GOP presidential hopeful Steve Forbes and Club For Growth president Pat Toomey.
The conservative wing of the GOP is seeking to maintain its influence in party leadership after experts say their position has lost ground along with legislative seats in the November, 2008, election.
