Oops.
From the Rapid City Journal:
The Federal Election Commission has fined the South Dakota Republican Party for failing to file a November 2005 financial report on time. The commission said in a news release Tuesday that the party was fined $1,000.I'd point it out if there was a story on the "D's" doing it, so rather than being hypocritical, here it is. Mea Culpa.
Max Wetz, a spokesman for the party, said Tuesday that he did not feel comfortable talking about the fine. He declined to elaborate on why the report was late.

I still say the SD Republican Party and the Round Administration missed the boat by not hiring Martin native, Ben Ready. Rounds and Frederick were unwilling to hire anyone who had strong ties to anyone else but themselves. Too bad because he would have been spectacular.
Dana Randall should be nominated as the next State GOP Chairman! It's time for change at the SD GOP, and Dana Randall is our best candidate. Dana is someone who would work with all Republican officials and candidates, and he would not play favorites.
You are right, though. We do need new leadership in the Party. Very little appears to be going in the right direction. I'm still trying to figure out what the message of the GOP candidates is going to be. Return me to Pierre and I'll help Rounds raise taxes and spend everything that comes in the door. What else does the Rounds administration stand for?
Because at the end of the day, who would you rather have in in charge - an R or a D?
