Poll: (Good or Bad) Michael Steele elected GOP chairman

[Allan Bartlett]

Let's Give Him A Chance

My opinion on Michael Steele is let's give the guy a chance. We know what he said after the South Carolina debate about Ron, but I still wanna give the guy a chance to reach out to all of us. He's now the Chairman of the party. If he truly wants to help bring a lot of the disaffected Republicans and independents back to the party, he will work with our liberty minded activists.

Chairman Michael Steele's Acceptance Speech

When watching Steele I get the feeling that he would love to have our support, and know how to energize the youth, but he can't bring himself to question his policies. He wants to know what he can get the government to do to win us over - he doesn't understand that we want the government to do nothing to win anybody over. The Constitution lays it out: the government exists to protect the rights of the people, not to make people happy and bring them into your flock.

If Steele drops the inanity of partisan bickering and statist doling, and starts promoting the aspects of the GOP that want to strip the government's power to have a deficit, control a standing and active military, and limit personal choices, then I will consider supporting more GOP members. Right now, I can only support one GOP representative. If the rest of the party starts looking at what attracted people to Rep. Paul, they will see that it wasn't any ploy, nor misdirection, nor promises of handouts - it was a commitment to restoring Liberty.


Mr. Steele, as the GOP chairman, please pick up the reading list that Rep. Paul submitted to neo-con poster boy Giuliani (who still, despite not even having any political value, gets 10 second spots on CNN-Radio to play "controlled opposition" to the new majority), and then we'll see if I can stomach promoting the GOP as an entity.

I didn't vote, but after the blatant pandering the GOP did by selecting sarah palin, it's hard for me to take seriously anything the GOP does.

I say give him a chance. I liked his comments at the chairman debate. And notice, at the First in the South, he said "For me." So, he at least had enough humility to qualify his negativity.

The RLC endorsed him during his run for the Maryland seat.

Like it or not, if we want to win any elections we need to not only rebuild bridges, but cross over a few also.

i doubt i will be a republican for very long. the gop has become the definition of INSANITY!!!

not one person running can reverse the gop corruption,since they are the corruption!!


GOP, non-inclusive party!

As Steele would say and i will . the gop campaign is dead over,done,finished.

rebuild what bridges?? the former gop leadership and the current gop leadership ,blew them all up and continued to blow them up while we tried to build them!! trusting the gop is like trusting the nazi's.


we are 8-20 yrs away from changing the gop. they just elected the very same leadership that we wanted ousted from the party.

DREAM AWAY, Welcome to the TWILGHT ZONE.

I will continue to fight for Liberty,but there is no such term to describe that word in the gop!

if you guys think Steele will save this party. Then your living in a fantasy world.

THE GOP= MORE OF THE SAME

delusional!!! sorry if you think he will bring back republicans and indys you will be sadly mistaken!!

After being a republican for the last few yrs. i think i need an ENEMA to remove the fowl stinch of the gop from my bowels!! i think i need to visit the clinic to ,so they can test me for the new strain of gop!! a deadly disease known to cause ALIENATION similar to leprosy

Yup.

Steele will do fine. He has a high media profile and is very well-spoken. No one even knew who the hell Duncan was.

Here's Steele's "Blueprint" (7 chapters).

Here he is addressing House Republicans today thanking them for voting NAY on Barry's Big Boondoggle.

steele is the dirty slime on top of the scum of the gop. the only motivation steele gives me is to remove the r next to my name!!!

RNC CHAIR=FAILED the best option for RNC CHAIR was NONE OF THE ABOVE!!


we are at least 8-12 yrs away from changing gop leadership,until we change the corrupt leadership. then all the rest is just tmz.com
it is very possible the gop could become the next whig party, ancient history!!!

 

[Lucille]

I already know how you feel, sb. You are one pissed-off RPR!

The Dems will hang themselves with their own damn rope.

Obama is the new Jimmy Carter, and after the D Congress shoves their crap sammich and another 2 trillion banker bailout down our throats before the year is even out, they will lose their majority in '10.

The reason the SC debate is relevant is that last time, when push came to shove, Steele pushed the chosen frontrunners/standard GOP line. During the next primary season, he will push the next chosen frontrunners/standard GOP line. Period, over and out. As much as I have suspicions about Mark Sanford, he would have been a better choice to be RNC Chair, as he is a bridge to both sides of the party divide (the standard liners vs. the Paul Republicans). But Steele can't even speak the liberty movement's language, let alone understand it.

"We're going to say to friend and foe alike: We want you to be a part of us, we want you to with be with us, and for those who wish to obstruct, get ready to get knocked over," Steele said.

WHAT THE HECK DOES THAT MEAN?!

Why would you say to friend and fow alike that you want them to be part of your party? Why would you want people opposed to your ideas to be in the party?

Complete rubbish
