1. 5th largest market in the US.
2. Centrally located geographically.
3. Friendly destination.
Personal anecdote: in her last job, my sister set up the national sales meetings. I suggested Dallas, and she used the Gaylord Texan resort near DFW airport. She said it was the best meeting ever, as it was the first that all attendees were able to make direct flights, with no connections.
4. Better messaging: get Washington out of our lives.
They don't call him "Turd Blossum" for nothin'.
Call the RNC and tell them that Preibus should resign and nominate Allen West. If they receive millions of calls, perhaps someone will listen.

This is silly. The RNC is not run by its leader.
Karl Roves lousy advice is a constant in all these Republican defeats. Are we certain hes not a Democrat mole?”””
Most people cannot openly admit their failures.
Certainly NOT a person whose profile is as big as Karl Rove & the others who keep making the same mistakes in choosing & supporting true Conservative candidates for us to vote for.
Already doing so for the past 5 years.
Newt’s a crotch fighter.
He’d be perfect.
Only a wino gives money to a RINO.
When RNC calls, I tell them go talk to Lindsey Graham. Done with them. There is in fact a renamed team in D.C. called the Washington Establishmentarians, headed by Reince Priebus. I won’t pay for their tea & crumpets.
........a person that would light up the political heavens like the aurora borealis she is IS Sarah! But, I doubt she would accept being a lowly RNC Chairperson.
What they need is an enema.
The Republican Party managed to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory in the 2012 elections due to the efforts of Preibus and Rove. Preibus was re-elected to his job immediately and Rove is back on Fox News. If you can’t learn from your defeats, than you are either stupid or bought.
I think this is THE job for Sarah Palin. I like West but, to me, Sarah is more on fire.
I nominate Chuck Norris!
After the ‘08 elections, all the big boys in the GOP collected up their cash and left town in a hurry, leaving behind only the sad relics of a good 6 year run (I don’t count the two Pelosi/Reid years as good ones).
Out of the ashes popped up two tiny little losers, failed candidates in their own tiny little contests, digging through the rubble for scraps, just trying to survive. One of them, a minority male from up around the DC area, picked up the suit the previous chair of the RNC had worn. It was pretty battered and dirty but he put it on and tried to wear it with pride.
The other tiny little loser, a female, part time fisherperson from some tiny little backwater dump, saw how pitiful he looked and started trying to make him feel better about his lot in life. She started talking to people, pounding the bricks, banging on doors, asking people to support him and help get that suit cleaned and pressed so it looked respectable again.
The two of them worked long and hard trying to make a difference. They were degraded and belittled at every turn, even by the very people who used to admire that suit so much. They were forced out of the city where all the powerful people were located and had to stumble around in the sticks, and only deal with the working classes. Their only entertainment was getting together with like minded people once in a while over a cup of tea.
In 2010 their work paid off. They broke a strangle hold on the US by ending the total control of the DNC. They changed over 600 seats nationwide from D to R without the support of all the big boys and their large bank accounts. They were on a roll and were so happy.
As soon as the word got out about what had happened, a mysterious operative, code named “Turd Blossom”, came creeping back into town. Instead of sharing in the joy he did an assesment of the financial situation. He realized there was too much money and power at stake to have these two tiny little people involved any longer. “How dare these yahoo’s think they are allowed to make decisions” he roared.
Late one dark and stormy night he smuggled his band of big boys back into town. They hired and deployed teams of political assassins to wreck everything these two tiny little people had accomplished in his absence. He would be in charge and he would say who and what about everything. He would choose someone to carry the GOP colors at the next competition, not some no-name beginners from outside. Let them go play with the working classes, and their tiny little elections.
In 2012 it happened. The efforts of “Turd Blossom” finally bore fruit, and it was not pretty. Perhaps the name was a bit more telling than we noticed, as apple blossoms only produce apples and cherry blossoms only produce cherries. It remains to be seen if the tiny little people can clean up this mess before disease and pestilence set in.
“I receive almost daily communication from the DNC and other organizations related to them. Not once have I received even a press release from the Priebus crowd.”
Truly damning.
I second that!
I haven't been. I'm giving mine directly to the candidate of MY choice.
I agree, a new leader and fire the entire staff and hire no one who has worked or lived in Washington DC as they are tainted beyond redemption.
A new chairman will make no difference unless the liberal DC underlings in the RNC are tossed out as well.
Priebus is an establishment moron. He talks in consultant-speak.
