LibertyDad welcomes Greg Peele who is running for Rules Committee of the Libertarian Party of Florida (LPF).
Libertarians can be a tough crowd, sometimes unfairly so. But that is no excuse not to rigorously challenge those vying for leadership positions within the party. Having worked hard to challenge members and leadership at all levels, and from all sub-groups within the party, DL put out a call. His offer:
"I'll give any willing candidate a tough interview; not hostile but def tough. But forewarning: friend, acquaintance or foe, I will be respectful but not hold back."
Greg answered and comes to sit in the hot seat.

I previously weighed in very sharply on Marc Victor's comments during a debate, going so far as to suggest he should step down from his run.
But was I right? I believe partially. After reluctantly reviewing his follow up response to the controversy I discuss where my view is and whether I should have responded so sharply (hint: yes).
