I was shocked Anuzis got in this, what a joke.
And Mike Duncan as well. Chosen by Bush and presided over 2008? No thanks.
Jim Greer is close to Crist and doesn’t have a website listed so he can go to hell. ;)
Saltman from the Duckapee camp? No thanks.
Steele would a good faceman but that’s not what this job is about. He’s mentioned the fauxcon rat problem. I’m not sure he’s conservative enough on economic matters for my liking. I’d like he or Ehrlich to run for MD Governor.
Dawson sounds very impressive with the fund raising. I especially like he started out his political life as a Republican.
Blackwell has a good record and mentions a “50-state strategy”.
I hope Dawson or Blackwell get it.
Chip Saltsman is from Nashville and is only 6 years older than I am, but the Nashville he grew up in vs. the one I did is far apart (he went to the best schools, I got stuck in the $hit). More from the upper crust West Nashville Republican set, and I’m the multicultural, transient, high-crime, working-class Antioch Republican set (although I personally am none of those 4 descriptions, the area is). They don’t get us (or just ignore us), and we don’t fit in with them. A lot of those same types were more than happy to overwhelmingly support the far-left rodent, Karl “Marx” Dean that won for Mayor because he was “one of them” (well, married one of them). Bob Clement got us great unwashed to vote for him as the more moderate candidate. They considered him uncouth.
Saltsman was Chairman of the state party at a time when our ex-RINO Governor was still in office (the only time I ever voted Democrat for Governor since he was to the right of the RINO) and he was called “Frist’s Secret Weapon” (which was a joke, since we all know how effective he was - and he was not a fighting Antioch Republican, but a tea and crumpets West Nashville/Belle Meade Republican). When he went to Huckster, that pretty much solidified my opinion of him as unacceptable for the post.
I think he’d go to work for any “R” as long as they paid his salary, no matter how liberal. It’s too bad Chip never did something about the dreadful situation with the local Davidson County GOP, which is almost non-existent as an organization (like the MA GOP).
