This is a nice website where the grassroots can have their voices heard. Personally, I've been leaning towards Ken Blackwell. I encourage everyone interested to check it out, vote, and leave comments.

I like Newt Gingrich! He is an Idea Man! He can come up with all sort of ideas to energize the party to new heights!

I know many of you say he has too many baggages! He admitted that and asked for forgiveness from you and most importantly from GOD!

He wants to help the party!

I am nervous about Steele! His color makes no difference to me but his views on several things bother me! He is more of a RINO than he is a Conservative!

I will confess that I know very little or none about Ken Blackwell!

I have been in several Congressional Campaigns so I do have some experiences! I also have an intimate relationship with the shower stall after each campaign with all that money that flowed under the table! Talk about greed and money and women! Ugh!

We need a Chairman who will communicate! By email! Somebody who knows how to use the Internet for raising cash, communicate with the members, plan, breathes fire, etc.

If not Newt, who else?

My two cents from a beaten-up party pusher!

Either Michael Steele or Ken Blackwell as RNC Chairperson well be fine by me, IMHO. But, no matter who ends up winning, the entire Republican Party must seriously and successfully become a conservative political party for always, and the entire Republican Party must also seriously and successfully end all non-conservative Republicanism for always!

It’s amazing how gullible people are. Here they ask you for your opinion but the “fix” is already in. The sheeple will actually give their advice and opinions thinking they will be considered but don’t even suspect that the selection has already been made.

The Republicans don’t want a conservative leader, they want a “yes” man and a “can do” slickster and huckster to magically create a screen of conservatism to fool those who think they will actually heed the wishes of their voting base.

When term limits are accepted and career politicians are no longer sucking our freedoms away to engorge their personal egos, wealth and power; only then will they listen to the voters.

Were I still a Republican, I'd choose Ken Blackwell out of all these names too; Blackwell appears to be too conservative for the losers at the top, which is par for the course (and symptomatic of why I left the party).

I hope to live long enough to see the day that Newt Gingrich's name never comes up for such a position. Newt is a self-obsessed has-been who has consistently bad-decisioned himself out of options until he is now reduced to playing a conservative whenever the MSM's central casting needs one.

(He's equally adept at portraying a "moderate Republican," and can do a pretty good Democrat when he gives it the old college try.)

Just because he once had a plan that worked until he screwed it up does not make him the greatest political genius of all time. His name even coming up speaks volumes not just about the lack of depth on the GOP bench, it also demonstrates that when new talent does show up, the old guard is right there to fire torpedoes at it.

If he was so brilliant, so concerned about conservatism, and so concerned about others, then he'd already be working his ass off behind the scenes instead of constantly grandstanding and dropping coy little hints about office that would be more appropriate for a political debutante than a D.C. spinster.

(END RANT MODE)

I rather like the Palin/Nugent in 2012 idea... that might get guys like myself back in the party. More of the same old hacks isn't going to bring ANYONE in.
