Bob Guzzardi is a conservative political activist, attorney, real estate and business owner from Montgomery County, Pennsylvania. He is best known for his support of John Eichelberger and Mike Folmer in successful primary election challenges against long-time incumbents. Eichelberger defeated then-Pennsylvania State Senate President Pro Tempore Robert Jubelirer and Folmer defeated then-State Senate Majority Leader David Brightbill in 2006. He has also been connected to a feud within the Montgomery County Republican Party with former county chairman and national committeeman Bob Asher, and runs the website BobAsherExposed.comAsher Exposed Website.
While a registered and professed Republican, Guzzardi has been known to support candidates of any party whom he believes support his fiscally conservative agenda or break up what he considers a corrupt establishment.
After graduating from Saint Joseph's Preparatory School of Philadelphia in 1963, Bob went on to study at Georgetown University where he earned his B.A. in Philosophy in 1966.

In 1970, after successfully obtaining his Juris Doctorate of Law, he was admitted to the Pennsylvania Bar.
