.RepLeeZeldin did not even have to campaign as a centrist to earn votes. He simply hammered Democrats on their failures while offering solutions for Republicans, writes Kenneth Cody. What the party needs right now is a unifying message like that one.
The Republican Party suffered monumental failures on election night, Nov. 8. With control of both chambers of Congress and several governorships on the line, the Republican National Committee disappointed on nearly every front, albeit with Republicans gaining an ever-so-slight majority in the House of Representatives. The revelation of the results has many in the GOP questioning who is to blame, what can be fixed, and which approaches need to be changed.
On a national scale, this should have been the response on the federal level, with anger, passion, and motivation directed at getting out or preventing Democratic Party candidates from holding office. The RNC continued to peddle messaging about inflation, crime, closing schools, and mandates, yet never offered any solutions or alternatives to those problems or gave them a reason to vote Republican.
Zeldin should make a run at the party chairmanship. McDaniel may know the ins and outs of the RNC, but Zeldin has shown the mentality of helping other candidates in his state win. He sacrificed his congressional career to attempt the ultimate upset of an incumbent, deep-blue state governor in Hochul. It was a battle that many did not think could or would be won, but it was the ultimate victory in many ways and may have rescued Republicans from failing to take the House.
