The fight for the Chairmanship of the Republican National Committee (RNC) seems to have more players on the field than a football game. However, a few serious contenders are emerging from the field such as Katon Dawson and Michael Steele.
In a new twist today former Presidential candidate and United States Senator Fred Thompson is poised to enter the race with a partner, Michigan National Committeeman Chuck Yob, as his co-chairman. Thompson would be the public face/spokesman of the RNC while Yob run the Party’s operations.
This partnership of Thompson and Yob could be the winning combination. Already they seem to be gaining momentum. As of tonight Oklahoma Republican Chairman Gary Jones has endorsed the ticket. “We have an extremely large task ahead of us and Senator Thompson has the art of message. When he speaks people listen,” stated Jones. “Chuck Yob is a strong grassroots organizer. As a businessman Chuck will be able to manage the resources of the Party. It is an attractive combination.”

What do you all make of this? JM2C: I don't like it.
Tom Delay was a large part of the Republican spending spree.
He is organized, no doubt, but he should not be allowed near taxpayer money.
So are you two part of the old Rudi backers who called Fred “an old glue horse”?
Fred would make a great RNC Chair. This is exciting news!

Question.....when did that interview take place??
With a name like that he's got to have a great sense of humor.
Nooooooo... Not Chuck Yob...
Fellow Michigander, Saul Anuzis, would be much better... Saul is conservative to the bone... Saul would do an excellent job and would keep the GOP on the “right” track...
The Michigan GOP hasn’t exactly fared too well under his watch. They failed to win the governor’s race, either house of congress, and they lost two conservative U.S. reps in 2008.
Anuzis may be a good guy, but he doesn’t have a fantastic track record.
Nope. In fact, I like Fred. I just never believed that he had the fire in the belly necessary to be a viable presidential candidate. Honestly, I’d rather have seen Jeri run than Fred.
