From  AJC about convention and Sue's election;
"Also at the convention, Sue Everhart made history when she was elected the first female chairman chairman of the state Republican Party. The longtime Cobb County activist told reporters she plans to help unite Perdue, Richardson and Cagle so they can help get U.S. Sen. Saxby Chambliss (R-Ga.) re-elected in 2008."

4This is no election. It’s a coronation.

Long-time GOP activist Sue Everhart of Cobb County has picked up yet another endorsement for chairmanship of the state Republican party — this one from Jim Beck, president of the Georgia Christian Coalition.

Beck, who once worked for Pierre Howard, the Democratic lieutenant governor, wanted to be sure no one thought him partisan. I would have considering to an endorsement in the Democratic chair race — but I was not asked,” he said late last week.

Everhart has already received a personal endorsement from Sadie Fields, chairman of the Georgia Christian Alliance. State Sen. David Shafer of Gwinnett County, who lost a GOP chairmanship race to Ralph Reed in 2001, also endorsed Everhart last week.

The only other announced candidate in the race is Anthony-Scott Hobbs, the current chairman of the Cobb County GOP. The next Georgia chairman will be selected by delegates to the statewide convention in mid-May. The delegate selection process began over the weekend.

    Sue Everhart unites the Georgia GOP.

More and more it looks as if Sue Everhart has the race for Chairman of the Georgia GOP locked up. Recently, Governor Perdue gave ‘quite blessing’ to Everhart. Yesterday according to the Political Insider Sadie Fields, former State Chairman of the Georgia Christian Coalition and current leader of the Georgia Christian Alliance climbed aboard the Everhart bandwagon.

Fields said this in an email to supporters:

Sue is the most qualified candidate in the race for Party Chairman. She is the current First Vice-Chair of the Georgia Republican Party and a long-time Republican Party leader and grassroots activist. She has worked on dozens of local, state and national campaigns and been named Volunteer of the Year by both the National and Georgia Republican Parties. She has also served in various other capacities in the party including Sixth District Chairman.

Sue now has people from across the Republican spectrum on her side, which says quite a bit about her leadership capabilities.

On the other side of the spectrum from Fields is frequent PP commenter and publisher of the Political Vine Bill Simon, who said this about Ms. Everhart in an email on January 30th:

I know Sue personally and I would not be her supporter for this position if she did not possess ALL of the characteristics of what is needed to be a competent leader in charge of the State Republican Party.

Perhaps it’s time for Anthony-Scott Hobbs to consider dropping out of the race.

4Sadie Fields says Sue Everhart is okay by her

Perhaps the most important political news on Thursday came from Sadie Fields, leader of the Georgia Christian Alliance.

It was an endorsement of the candidacy of Sue Everhart for the chairmanship of the state Republican party. We told you last week that Gov. Sonny Perdue had given his blessing to Everhart. The only other announced candidate in the race is Anthony-Scott Hobbs, the chairman of the Cobb County GOP.  Read more from AJC. . .

4Perdue gives ‘quiet blessing to Sue Everhart ‘

    February 9th, 2007 by buzzbrockway · 9 Comments

So saith the Political Insider. While I agree we don’t want the Party’s rules to give a Republican Governor the sole authority to appoint a Chairman, you do want a Chairman who can and will work with a Republican Governor. Sue most certainly will work well with Perdue, Hobbs…..not so much.  Click here to read more. . .

Dear Republicans of Georgia
 
It has been my pleasure to support Sue Everhart in several of her campaigns for Republican offices -- including her successful run for GA GOP 1st Vice Chairman in 2005.  Please click here to view the web page which I made for her during that campaign which outlines many of her accomplishments -- complete with photos. Sue was there with us at the GOP National Convention in NYC in 2004 where she was the Georgia Coordinator for that Convention and handled the housing for Georgia delegates, alternates and guests. This was a tremendous responsibility which she handled so well. Sue has always served  Republicans in Georgia tirelessly -- especially those of us at the grassroots level.  Click here to view a web page made at the Convention as part of the Daily Diary pages which I made for the GA Delegation. Sue was a key player in this event. 



I hope you will join me and many other Georgia Republicans to see that she is elected GA GOP Chairman at the State Convention on May 19, 2007, at our State Convention in Gwinnett County.  Please
read her Press Release below AND 
FORWARD THIS TO YOUR REPUBLICAN E-MAIL LIST.

 
Bettye Chambers, Georgia Republican

4Competence In New Leadership For The
    State Republican Party


     by Bill Simon of the Political Vine - Cobb County - January 30, 2007

As far as I'm concerned, there is only one person who is competent for the 2007 State GOP Chairman's slot, and that person is Sue Everhart. Below is an excerpt from her press release from a few days ago:

Mrs. Everhart worked her way up the Republican Party hierarchy through the grassroots. She has worked on dozens of local, state and national campaigns.

She has also served in various capacities in the Georgia Republican Party including Sixth District Chairman for 2 terms. She is now Vice-Chairman of the Georgia Republican Party. She was named the Georgia Republican Party’s Volunteer of the year in 2000 and received their Pioneer Award in 2005 for her long and continued service to the Party. In 2006, she received an award from the Georgia Christian Coalition for Volunteer of the Year.

She is a tireless organizer, believes strongly in developing and maintaining a grassroots organization, and has outstanding political instincts and in-depth knowledge of the Republican Party organization and the candidates and volunteers in the state.

Mrs. Everhart is the widow of Guy O. Everhart, MD and has one son. She is a former banker (rising to the level of senior vice-president before she left to have a family) and lives in Marietta, Georgia.

She has been very active in her community including serving as Chairman of the Cobb County Election Commission, Chairman of the Cobb County Arts Board, Board Member of the Cobb County Conventions and Visitors Bureau, and she serves on the Advisory Board for the Cobb County Symphony.

I know Sue personally and I would not be her supporter for this position if she did not possess ALL of the characteristics of what is needed to be a competent leader in charge of the State Republican Party.

I could say a lot more, but, it's really late now and I have to turn-in for some sleep.

But, let me leave you this link to a post on the Peach Pundit blog that Jason Shepherd, Chairman of The Georgia Young Republicans, posted earlier yesterday.

It is on a thread in which I got into a rather heated argument with some clown in Savannah who blogs under a pseudonym called "landman"...AND, it was this argument that prompted Jason to compose a very eloquent answer to all of the clown's concerns about Sue's leadership abilities.

Peace out.
