US Senate hopeful Gabriel E. Gomez may be a fresh face to the Massachusetts Republican Party, but the former Navy Seal was briefly the face of a controversial group that criticized President Obama for politicizing the killing of Osama bin Laden.
Made up of former Navy SEALs and intelligence officers, the group, known as the Special Operations OPSEC Education Fund, expressed concern that national security was being compromised by a spate of intelligence leaks. The focus of the organization’s campaign was a 22-minute video released three months before the election that slammed Obama for exploiting the killing of bin Laden and endangering troops for political purposes.

Gomez may have some valid national security issues to argue, but his behavior thusfar says there is no reason for him to enter any political affray, especially a bone-bruiser like a Taxawhoshetts senatorial campaign. He really needs to go spend some money on another venture and leave the GOP candidate ranks to the weak political figures already seen as contest ants.
I will not vote for someone who is fixated on their own tinfoil hat perceptions of world affairs. We need roads and schools, not posturing and petulance. Reject the tea baggers.
