I’m ‘Sick to My Stomach’ of Pete Sessions Running the NRCC into the Ground

He’s becoming a joke: National Republican Congressional Committee Chairman Pete Sessions is trying to referee an increasingly bitter Florida 24th District primary, criticizing a new mailer from Florida Republican Craig Miller questioning rival Karen Diebel’s mental fitness as out of bounds.
