Florida GOP Danita Kilcullen: Whores Chasing Whores

Tea party activists sent out fliers and emails strongly criticizing 
Broward County Commissioner 
Chip LaMarca and School Board member 
Heather Brinkworth, both Republicans, 
for participating in a gay pride parade. Among other things, the fliers — which nobody in particular will take credit for 
asked if it is "worth
selling your soul to the devil" 
to get votes from gays.
Danita Kilcullen, a Republican committeewoman and co-founder of Tea Party 
Fort Lauderdale, made things infinitely worse by sending out an email version, which began with the statement "whores chasing whores, if you will." Kilcullen said she wasn't responsible for the fliers, 
but her email leaves little doubt she 
embraces the sentiment. here
