Sean Mahoney, a New Hampshire businessman who until today served as the Republican National Committeeman for the Granite State, announced today he is resigning from the RNC. Mahoney, who has served on the RNC’s Conservative Steering Committee and co-sponsored an RNC resolution against government bailouts, drew a grim comparison between out-of-control government spending in Washington and the RNC’s own profligacy in a letter to Chairman Michael Steele today. While blasting recent RNC scandals and writing the Committee “has clearly lost its way,” Mahoney writes favorably of the Tea Party movement in his letter.
“Thus, it is with profound disappointment that I tender my resignation today as Republican National Committeeman for New Hampshire,” Writes Mahoney. “I have concluded that there simply has to be a more productive and meaningful way to serve the causes I care most about – preserving what’s left of our individual liberties, restoring the liberties we have lost and drastically reducing the size and scope of the federal government.”
Mahoney continues, “On April 15th, for example, hundreds of thousands, probably millions, of ordinary Americans all across the country will make a statement that Washington is out of control and out of touch.”
“The powerful in Washington will belittle these folks and dismiss their list of legitimate grievances,” he concluded. “As for me, I would prefer to stand with the hundreds of concerned taxpayers in Manchester, New Hampshire who have courageously cut back their family budgets to make ends meet rather than with a crowd of self-important politicians who spend other people’s money with reckless disregard.”
