Former EPA head Christine Todd Whitman, Mary Belle Snow, former Maryland Lt. Gov, Michael Steele

Christine Todd Whitman said she sees a need for the Republican party to be less boxed in. “There is no way for us to all be aligned on every issue. I cut taxes but am pro choice, so what does that make me. A moderate? A liberal?” she asked.

Along with former Maryland Lt. Governor Michael Steele, Whitman came to town to find support for the Republican Leadership Council — and nearly 75 people ponied up to hear the pitch.

No comment as to what that 'makes Mrs. Whitman', but if I ever have to choose between voting for a tax-raiser who believes in the sanctity of God-given life vs. a tax-cutter who believes an unborn baby is a lifeless blob of protoplasm that can excised as if it were a tumor -- I'd vote for the tax-raiser.
'Oddly' enough (actually it really isn't all that odd), at least in this Country, the vast majority of those that are pro-life also support smaller government (and less taxes).

Nice to see at least one post on this thread that isn’t fawning Republican propaganda.

Steele is a squishy Beltway insider lawyer.

I’ve learned two things for sure from his ascension to the leadership of the RNC:

1) The Republicans’ plumbline is still Barack Obama. Like all armies destined to lose, they’re reacting to Obama, who has the initiative and isn’t likely to lose it anytime soon.

2) The Republicans don’t even know what is wrong with them and therefore are locked in on the same course that has marked their efforts for several years now. Anyone who is actually expecting anything out of them except lip service to anything conservative are extremely naive.
