Republican State Chairman Chris Healy's unexpected bid to explore becoming the next Republican national chairman is getting a cool reception in Connecticut: Neither of the state's other two Republican National Committee members back him.
Pat Longo of Wilton and state Rep. John Frey of Ridgefield said in interviews Thursday they are supporting the incumbent, Michael Steele.
Healy sent Longo an email Wednesday with a story that mentioned him as a possible challenger to Steele.
"I responded, 'Don't even think of it.' I'm sure he is very angry with me today," said Longo, whose known Healy for nearly 30 years. "He used to call me his 'other mother.' "
