“You actually think Steele would vote against a Roberts or Alito?”
Probably not. But who knows? That jackass McCain initially said he wouldn't nominate someone like Justice Alito.
But the other side of the question is, would Mr. Steele vote AGAINST someone like Ms. Ginsburg?
And just as importantly, would Mr. Steele CHAMPION someone like Mr. Alito or Mr. Roberts? Especially if they refused to say that Roe should be upheld, and he were backed into a corner on national TV, and blurted out some dumbass remark like, “We should follow stare decisis on Roe.”
Oh wait, he actually did say that, didn't he. LOL.
Of course, the Supreme Tyrants are not the only way to get rid of Roe.
The Congress could pass a constitutional amendment and send it to the states. That's something in which a Senator would be involved directly. But Mr. Steele shot that down during the same Meet the Press event as when he accepted Roe.
The Congress could also pass legislation denying to the courts jurisdiction on cases of abortion, and then pass a federal law saying that life begins at conception. But Mr. Steele said that the question of abortion is “RIGHTLY” belonging to the Supreme Court. So that would seem to rule that out.
Ultimately, as long as the central holdings of Roe and Doe hold, unborn children will never be protected in law.
And that's what this ultimately all about - preventing the legal massacre of over 1,000,000 children per year.
“All I have to say is you are going to look like a fool if you leave the Party and Steele hammers away at abortion.”
Well, I promise you that I've done more foolish things in my life. If he comes out and forcefully says Roe must go, then I'll rejoin the party.
But if he comes out with a lot of namby-pamby baloney, and dances around the question or Roe, then I'll know that I was right.
“Steele bungled the segment got caught off gauard whatever.”
The jackass McCain bungled the same question in 1999. And within two weeks, had retracted his idiocy and reaffirmed his opposition to Roe.
“The GOP is the only political vehicle in which you will have a chance to overturn Roe...”
Not if its chairman AFFIRMS that Roe should stand.
“...(something Steele agrees with you on but you are too unwilling to see it).”
Sorry, but the actual words of the man contradiction what you're saying. He's said that Roe should stay.
Unlike you, I take the man at his word.
“If you go out into the wilderness you are weakening your cause. We need to stick together.”
I hate to tell you, brother, we're already IN the wilderness.
What would strengthen our cause would be if we all recognized that fact and actually DID stick together. Where we actually are right now. Which is the wilderness.

I’ll bet you a hundred bucks Steele does not affirm Roe as Chairman. You wouldn’t dare take me up on it.
