#661 | Bridge Builder -or- Gatekeeper! | The Political Spotlight
Delaware County Republican Party Chairman Tim Overton tells anyone he considers an "outsider" in or around the party that they need to work on "building bridges" and be less "standoffish!" Yet when Host Kristopher H. Bilbrey attempts to communicate with Overton about being appointed to one of Delaware County's open delegate seats, Bilbrey doesn't get very far and feels shut out and unheard. This leaves Bilbrey wondering whether it's Overton who needs to build those bridges! Overton acts less like a bridge builder or a leader and more like a "Gatekeeper!" Bilbrey shares his thoughts on this issue in this 661st episode. He also provides an update on the Knightsown situation and other topics under review. #ThePoliticalSpotlight
