I read Donna Alden's letter regarding Jim Wright running against Sen. Darrel Aubertine for state Senate.

I echo her thoughts, and being a lifelong Republican, I am ashamed to be a part of any endorsement of Jim Wright. He sold us "down the river" for a job which probably hasn't worked out for him, and now he wants to change horses in the middle of the stream again.

The Republican Party should wake up. I fully support Darrel Aubertine and always will.
