It’s affirmative action. RNC has to put losers in significant postions so their self-esteem won’t suffer. The whole competition thing in campaigning is so, like, last year. /sarc

I really think it’s time for Steele to step aside. He keeps bungling. Ken Blackwell is raring to go.

Steele was on Sean’s radio show today. Sean sucked up to hom and Steele sppke of conservative values. Now he appoints another RINO just like himself.
Kiss 2010 and 2012 goodbye.
