With a few dissents, Sen. Mel Martinez (R-FL) was elected general chair of the Republican Nat'l Cmte this afternoon. RNC general counsel Mike Duncan was elected chair.

Let's hope he recruits GOP candidates who can win election in BLUE states. What a novelty, huh?

...no different than the democrats and their lies.

BS

"Typical response from the right wing drama queens."

Now, now. Let's not have a voice of reason on this thread.

And it seems to have done you very little good.

Boycott the RNC. Send your dollars directly to conservative candidates who are strongly against illegal immigration.

I may as well start learning spanish and add it to my skillset

Good idea. It may help me in future nasty confrontations in parking lots with illegal aliens who don't speak English, only Spanish. Like the one my wife and I had two days ago at ALDI.

Speaking of ALDI, I can forget my German now. Germany is finished anyway.

Just think, we could have had Steele and he's in favor of AFFIRMATIVE ACTION. Now, do you really think that Steele could have set that policy?

[politicalwit]

Nawww...he's still a newbie.

Reagan took the high road and did it effectively.

Uh dude, Reagan signed amnesty in 86.

The level of rant reminds me of the New Orleans flood...but also reminds me of me when I get mad....blow up and let it all out...then I settle down and get to work.

But I do know the difference between fund raising and policy making. This is one issue not pushing my buttons this morning ;)

And it seems to have done you very little good.

[tiredoflaundry]

...let's see how the Rinos like their minority status for a while... maybe they will find a way to grow a spine.

The issue with RINOs is not the lack of a spine, rather it is the lack of principles. RINOs often have very strong spines (look at Arlen Spector). The issue is a lack of leadership among Conservatives.
