Newsmakers 2/19: McKay, Sweeney

EAST PROVIDENCE, R.I. (WPRI) - This week on Newsmakers: two men vying to be the next chairman of the State Republican Party, Ken McKay and Patrick Sweeney. McKay is a former top staffer for previous Governor Don Carcieri and a chief of staff for the RNC. He talks about his vision for the future of the party and weighs in on the 2012 race against Sheldon Whitehouse as a focus for the party. Patrick Sweeney is on the Board of Directors for the RI Young Republicans. He discusses how the party under his wing would perform and talks how an initiative to broaden GOP support – RI Clean Slate – in the legislature was a missed opportunity.
