Utah Republicans sent a very clear message to Bob Bennett this weekend: “You’re fired!”
At the Utah Republican convention, Bennett failed to receive the party’s nomination to return to the Senate. Two other Republicans – Tim Bridgewater and Mike Lee – will be on the ballot in a primary election. The winner will be on the ballot in the general election and will likely be favored to be Utah’s next senator.
Congratulations, Utah, for sending Bennett home. You’re much better off without him representing you.
