Word is Blackwell is withdrawing. I wonder where those 15 votes go.
I don’t think he really likes Steele (just a hunch)

I just cannot see Blackwell handing the chairmanship to Dawson. Anuzis is the unknown. I don’t know much about him except he’s into high-tech. But so is Steele. Could somebody out there tell me if Dawson is a good or great communicator and media-friendly. I don’t know very much about him at all.

His single Mom making a pittance raised him in Baltimore. he managed to escape and get into Johns Hopkins.What a great story to put out there for our side. Steele has a great history; he's not running for President but will be a great spokesman for hard work makes success.

“Kind of ironic seeing as Michael Steele is a big supporter of affirmative action. Not a very “conservative” position. “
Well there’s affirmative action which is a voluntary approach to encouraging more people across the spectrum to get into positions and then there’s quotas, which is not the original intent.
Historically, the former was hijacked by the latter. Not sure about Michael Steele’s personal view or how that would play into a national role.

If all of Blackwell’s voters go to Steele he’ll have 75...
Wonder if Anuzi’s folks will start breaking one way or the other

GOP ...
THE PARTY OF LINCOLN!
It will be an interesting next ballot.
Blackwell had right-wing conservative support, so it wasnt a natural that they’d go for Steele.
