You mean like how Wildrose ejected Steven Carter a couple years ago for his own Twitter indescretions?

C'mon Slava, surely you understand the difference between dumping an office flunky off your staff and dumping a candidate a week ahead of the election. I'm not saying Smith was right in her response - clearly she was not - but lets not make Redford out as some kind of heroine for having the "courage" to force an easily replacable person out of their job.
