Frankly, I wouldn't take this too seriously. Steele will be glad to have Rush on his side when the time comes. This is, to be honest, a black guy talking ya-ya with other black guys and that kind of "dialog" never yields anything terribly useful.

I don’t care what D.L. Hughley thinks about politics. Hughley is a comedian. Can’t they find a serious black man, like Thomas Sowell, to put on the network? Or do they think all black men should be comics, or buffoons like Sharpton?

This is no real surprise to me.
I’ve never been that impressed by anything I have ever
heard from Steele.
But now he’s ascended, Peter Principle-like, to the level
of his incompetence, and has some kind of “official” status. He’s a fool if he thinks he can minimize Rush Limbaugh’s influence in any way: Limbaugh has the most fiercely loyal followers of ANYONE in the MEDIA, and I DO mean ANYONE. Steele, unfortunately, is looking precisely like an inverted Uncle Tom figure, of a kind not only not fit to speak for the ‘new’ Conservative identity of the revived Republican Party, but not even belong in that Party.
Just another across-the-aisle figurehead figure, like you-know-who, whose whole mission is to absorb himself, and all of us, in what is NOW shaping up as the most dangerous and demagogic rush toward a Great Depression, out of which SOCIALISM is supposed to emerge , phoenix-like, out of the ashes. Got news for everyone.....NOTHING is going to emerge out of the ashes, except tyranny. The Enemy we always knew was within, is right there parading itself in front of our faces every day, and we’d better not be afraid to identify it.

Rush certainly not the leader. Operation Chaos remember that. I like the substitutes a lot better than Rush frequently.

Mr Steele. How’s that math working out for you?

Approximate numbers
100 Million voters
47 million votes for Palin/McCain
20 million Rush listeners

What did Rush say that was “incendiary and ugly”? I guess the truth is “incendiary and ugly.”

In context it wasn't as bad as I had expected. I don't think he was putting Rush down.

I think he meant that Rush is an entertainer and was doing what Rush does...better than anybody else.

Steele wouldn't be so stupid as to criticize Rush Limbaugh on CNN!!!

so Steele chooses to remove his mask on the occasion of the best public articulation since omomma took office of our American Spirit and exceptionalism.

Fine.

If the GOP follows suit, So Be It.

Rush was wonderful and positive and very encouraging last night; I didn’t see a single “incendiary” thing in his talk, unless Steele has bought into the idea that it’s verboten to talk about The One in anything less than adulatory tones.

I didn’t know much about Steele and I wasn’t sure what to think about him, but I think he’s made it pretty clear now where he stands.

I watched Rush’s speech yesterday, and he left tons of ammo for the opposition. I can easily see how he made people on our side of the isle nervous. The speech was ‘disjointed’ mishmash at best. If you saw that speech and did not understand Rush, I can easily see how people may feel.

Are the Republican leaders just this stupid? Really, here we have a man, Rush Limbaugh, who brings down the house, with the audience on their feet, comment after comment. Twenty-two million people can not wait until noon every day to hear his comments. What does the Republican party do? They make Limbaugh an enemy. It is beyond belief.

Steele continues to lead the GOP toward Donk Lite.

More reach out across the aisle, bipartisan garbage the OP(formerly the GOP) has come to embrace. CPAC allowing Republicans to their convention defeats the whole purpose of advancing the conservative cause.

It will only serve to make it increasingly more difficult for the GOP to fundraise. Seems that most GOP leaders take their eye off their constituents when they speak to the MSM, Hollywood, etc.

Michael Steele better watch what he is saying, because Rush better represents what the Republicans need to say. Rush will be the last man standing with many Conservatives.

Michael needs to stay on message and quit pandering to his audience.
He shouldn't make this into a “my rice bowl” issue, with his “He's not the leader, I'm the leader.” comments.

Rush told the truth.
Rush speaks for most of what I believe in.
So many people talk out of both sides of their mouths,
it's no wonder Rush can make a good living doing what he does.

Steele got out his kneepads pretty quickly.
