Though Brian Fitzpatrick moved from California to Pennsylvania last month, he has already made the NRCC Young Guns program. Brian Fitzpatrick has not yet raised huge funds nor garnered huge endorsements to both make the list and oust his primary frontrunner Scott Petri who appears to have been unceremoniously shoved out of the race. However, Brian is the brother of the current representative Mike Fitzpatrick, which seems to be sufficient for the NCCC to clear the field for him.
“Within a month of Brian’s move from California, Washington Republicans are already trying to push an outsider on Pennsylvanians.” said DCCC Spokesman Jermaine House. “Republicans clearly believe that a familiar last name is all it takes to be the most qualified Republican to run in this district – but Bucks County residents want actual solutions to Washington’s dysfunction.”
