“””Doug is a conservative, who understands that our freedom is our greatest strength, that life is a precious gift, and that getting back to our founding principles will ensure our nation’s security and prosperity for us and for our children and grandchildren,” Thompson said in an e-mail from his political action committee, FredPAC. The e-mail includes a link to a page for donations to Hoffman’s campaign.””

I live in FL but Hoffman sure looks like any easy choice to me.

Seems like a no-brainer to me, but then again I know I hate P1$$ing money down a RAT hole

Sounds like Newt is on the wrong side-—again. Maybe he should confer with Sharpton.

So tell me where Michael Steele has not been an unmitigated disaster?

Paging Haley Barbour?

Heck paging Tom Selleck for that matter or any GOP Volunteer to do his job....

From the Democrats' side of course. He's the best RNC chair the Democrats could ever want.

I believe Herman Cain would do very well as RNC chair!

>>If you haven’t been following it, the race in NY-23 has Fred Thompson, Club for Growth and Bill Kristol on one side<<

Add Mark Levin to that list.
He announced it yesterday.

Newt is trying his wings for a run for Prez...but he is stupid to think that he could win. He’s gone soft and fuzzy. And I’m not comparing him to my two pet bunnies. They have a LOT more common sense than him.

Newt needs to be in an invisible advisory role to GOP politicians.

I’m not sure where Newt is on the “individualist vs elitist” scale, though.

On the other hand, in a fight between Michael Steele's team and Fred Thompson's team, is this really a tough call?

It's not a tough call for us, but I read somewhere that this district, which had gone repub for 100 years, tallied a majority of votes for obozo last year. That makes the outcome of this race unpredictable.
