This girly man probably has never had dirt under his fingernails.

You nailed it...career lawyer & politician. Never created a private sector job, or made a payroll in his entire life.

Perfect fit for the RNC.

Lay off Mr. Priebus. I’ve met him and he’s a gentleman, a nice guy, and well-qualified. So, he has a funny name. Funnier than these? Doc Savage; sand88; martin_fierro

The RNC has fixed the primary race for Romney.

They sure have in my state. Just like the old Soviet Union, the Republican Party of Virginia has chosen my candidates for me: RuPaul or Myth. No write-ins accepted.

FWIW, Jeff Zeleny in (Jan 15, 2011) NY Times:

“My name is Reince Priebus,” he said, slowly saying his given name, which rhymes with pints (like pints of his favorite beer, Wisconsin’s own Miller High Life) and his family name (PREE-bus).

“I know it’s a tough name,” Mr. Priebus said. “That’s what happens when you have a Greek and a German for parents — you get a name like mine.

His father was an electrician before he started his real estate business. I’d bet that he’s had plenty of dirt under his fingernails growing up (rehabbing houses, etc) and that’s why he went to law school. He’s a partner in one of the most prominent law firms in Milwaukee.

The process we are going through right now is healthy and we will nominate a qualified candidate who will beat Obama decisively in Nov.

Get real. They're rigged it for Romney and have been doing it ever since November 5, 2008.

That makes him part of the problem.

No. His firm is one of the “good guys”. I don’t think I’ve ever heard of his firm pulling anything unethical, which I can’t say about many of the other firms. There are times when you really need a good law firm, and I would choose them if I had a coplicated problem. Hopefully those times are rare, but you still need a good firm in a clutch — even when it’s just buying, or selling, your house.

RNC Chairman Reince Priebus said Tuesday that he’s not worried....and predicts the party "will crown Mitt, I um, er, mean we will have a nominee pretty quickly.”

It is totally irrelevant that he is a nice guy. The entire RNC is out to crush anyone who is a conservative. He is part of the elite machine. Mr Preibus is 100% behind helping the elites hold on to power.

Mr. Preibus and the rest of the RNC worships at the alter of State power. They are not a friend of Liberty or of our beloved Constitution.

You mean like they did in 2008?

They are trying to rig it for Romney. It remains to be seen whether republican voters will go for it. Never underestimate the electorate.
