This is exactly why the GOP is in trouble. On the one hand, a true RINO like Romney wins the CPAC straw poll (twice), and on the other hand, a promising electable conservative like Steele gets called a RINO.
So you heard Steele is pro choice? You've got a computer, Google it! He is not pro choice, he is pro stem-cell. I know this is a touchy issue, but there is a difference. On the issue of gun control, he is NRA endorsed, and the only criticisms about Steele regarding the 2nd Amendment I could find were dodgy at best, and appeared to come from the fringe. To my view, Steele and Palin may be the best shot we have. Reagan started out as "New Deal" Dem for Pete's sake! I guess that made him a RINO. We conservatives had better get it together or we will lose this nation to socialism. Dismissing Steele will only hand us another McCain, which will lead to one Obama after another.
I will do some research on Steele.
A quote posted here on FR from Steele in the Washington Post sounded very anti-gun rights to me.
Perhaps I’ll start a thread and freepers can discuss this very topic.
