It's time for Idaho's GOP to take stock

| August 12, 2014 7:00 AM

Now that the Idaho Republicans have decided on their leadership, it’s time to take stock.

Six years ago the tea party took control of the Idaho Republican Party. As a result, they moved the legislature to the right and provided organizations, like the ultra-conservative Idaho Freedom Foundation, an influential place at the table.

The result was chaos. Voters elected a number of legislators whose agenda was to sow rancor and distrust.
