McGlowan takes flak over loyalty
Republicans in Mississippi’s 1st District are questioning Angela McGlowan’s party loyalty after the former Fox News analyst refused to commit to backing frontrunner state Sen. Alan Nunnelee in the event he wins the June GOP primary.

In an appearance last week on the Paul Gallo radio show, McGlowan criticized Nunnelee’s record on taxes and referred to him as a “Republican in name only.” She said she would support former Europa Mayor Henry Ross if he wins the primary, but declined to commit to backing Nunnelee.

Her comments led Prentiss County GOP Chairman Roy Gray to fire off an angry email letter to Mississippi GOP Chairman Brad White and other local party leaders, questioning McGlowan’s GOP bona fides and raising the possibility that she was “a plant for Travis Childers.”

“Angela has previously stated that she intended to run a positive campaign focusing on the defeat of Travis Childers. Good advice, that she needs to heed,” wrote Gray, according to a copy of the email obtained by POLITICO.

1. So they force people to endorse their frontrunner candidates?
Isn't that party bosses in action? Making deals in smoke filled back rooms?
