“Tom Cole has guided the NRCC through a difficult time for our party, and I’m sincerely grateful for his service to our team. But I believe having Pete Sessions at the helm of the NRCC in the next cycle will give House Republicans our best shot at rebuilding a majority coalition,” Boehner said in a statement. “Pete has the skills needed to recruit top-tier candidates and give them the support they need to challenge a Democratic Congress. ... We need Pete Sessions at the leadership table as the next chairman of the NRCC.”
Coming from a metropolitan district that has suburban as well as central-city areas, and in a long-time GOP area trending more Democratic, perhaps Boehner believes Sessions has some demographic-related insights.
