After Embracing Trump, MassGOP Faces Leadership Challenge  After a disappointing election during which the state Republican Party warmly embraced a deeply unpopular President Trump, and continues to do so, MassGOP 

Chairman Jim Lyons is confronting growing frustration from within the party over his leadership and now competition for his job.

Norfolk Rep. Shawn Dooley of Norfolk announced Monday evening that he would challenge Lyons for chairmanship of the party in January when the 80-person state committee, of which he is a member, votes to elect the chair for a new two-year term.  https://www.wbur.org/news/2020/11/17/dooley-lyons-mass-gop-trump

2019   Jimmy Jimmy What The Hell You Doing?

“I’m going to do my job, which is to elect more Republicans by sticking to broad principles,” says Jim Lyons. “Winning is about building our ranks. I will leave the politics to the individual candidates.”

Lyons, speaking to me in his first media interview since last Thursday’s party election, seemed about as far from his anti-establishment, wild man image as possible. He was seated on the deck of a Southwest resort hotel, dressed in a navy blue suit, taking time in between meetings and lavish meals with the elites of the Republican National Committee (RNC).

Lyons only learned last Friday, after winning the state committee vote, that he had to high-tail it to Albuquerque for the annual Winter Meeting. It’s been a bit of a whirlwind for the 65-year-old small businessman. He lost his election for a fifth term as state representative in November, and became a late entrant for the open chair position in mid-December. Now, he’s being introduced around to national Republican leaders by Ron Kaufman, Massachusetts’s long-time Republican National Committeeman.
