Steele lashes out at critics: "Fire me or shut up!"

Okay there is a good concrete suggestion: FIRE HIM and put Ken Blackwell in charge! Sheeeeeeesh. I saw this coming a long time ago. We know the Republican Party is in the hands of the RINOs and mini-me tyrants who want nothing more than more power --- over us. Conservatives have to either take back the power and use it effectively or start their own national base and work to draw others in from other venues.

The RNC chair's job is to raise money and he's not doing well.

I had much higher hopes and expectations. Although, I can't recall the names of the others he bested for the job, it seems to me that he was the best at the time.

He's just not exuding confidence or enthusiasm. After his many guest stints on FNC, I thought he would be a much more articulate speaker, but again, he's failed there too.

Given that I donate directly to candidates of my choice, I no longer have a say in the workings of the RNC, but should the national organization replace Michael Steele with a vibrant chairperson, I would likely consider donating again.

I liked the black guy from Ohio, but now that Obama has shown his true colors—pink, not black—do we need someone of color as the man out front?

Can we trade him to the DNC for a water cooler?

They don't have watercoolers at the DNC, they only drink the Kool-Aid.

Once he said “we are going to lose”, he should have quit. Don’t let the door hit you in the ass on the way out.
