Thank you for visiting the website of It’s My Party Too (IMP-PAC). We are pleased to announce that we have recently joined forces with other prominent national Republicans, including Senator John Danforth, Governor Tom Ridge, and Lt. Governor Michael Steele, and have reenergized the Republican Leadership Council.
Our goals and commitment to returning the Republican Party to its roots are the same, but we are doubling our efforts and expanding our base of support!

Rudy: GOP Becoming “Ideologically Narrower”
Former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani (R) said that the Republican Party is becoming ideologically and geographically narrower, and said that social issues have driven away many former GOP voters.
Giuliani said the Republicans must learn how to again become competitive in states like California, New York, and Illinois — particularly in those states’ suburban communities — during an interview with the conservative website The New Majority.
“We have to deliberately have a policy of running candidates that can win in the New Yorks, the Californias, the Illinois, and in the satellite states,” Giuliani said. “We have to be able to emphasize the issues that are of concern to the voters, and not alienate them on issues that just don’t work in certain parts of the country.”
Giuliani said that means running candidates who are more centrist on social issues like gay rights and abortion, while maintaining a stronger focus on fiscal, military, and foreign policy stances.
“Those are issues on which we can get a majority of the American people, if we don’t drive them away with the social issues,” the onetime Republican presidential nominee said. He added that electoral math does not support the idea that Republicans would have won the 2008 election had they been more conservative.
“Our base is our base, and is not getting bigger. If anything, it’s getting smaller,” Giuliani stated. “[Democrats] focused on their broadest organizing principles, and left room for disagreement, whereas we focused on our narrowest organizing principles and didn’t leave room for disagreement.”
Thanks and thanks too for this exchange from that link:
MR. RUSSERT: Would, would you encourage — would you hope the U.S. Supreme Court overturns Roe vs. Wade?
LT. GOV. STEELE: I think that that’s a matter that’s going to rightly belong to the courts to decide ultimately whether or not that, that issue should be addressed. The, the Court has taken a position, which I agree, stare decisis, which means that the law is as it is and, and so this is a matter that’s ultimately going to be adjudicated at the states. We’re seeing that. The states are beginning to decide for themselves on, on this and a host of other issues. And the Supreme Court would ultimately decide that.
MR. RUSSERT: But you hope that the Court keeps Roe v. Wade in place?
LT. GOV. STEELE: I think the Court will evaluate the law as society progresses, as the Court is supposed to do.
MR. RUSSERT: But what’s your position? Do you want them to sustain it or overturn it?
LT. GOV. STEELE: Well, I think, I think, I think Roe vs. Wade, Roe vs. Wade is a, is a matter that should’ve been left to the states to decide, ultimately. But it, it is where it is today, and the courts will ultimately decide whether or not this, this gets addressed by the states, goes back to the states in some form or they overturn it outright.
MR. RUSSERT: Is is your desire to keep it in place?
LT. GOV. STEELE: My desire is that we follow what stare decisis is at this point, yes.
