FR needs to post this as a poll, we haven’t had a poll in a while!

After NY-23 I’d have no objection if the NCC replaced him.

That said, some of the asshats on this forum have said many times over that there’s no way the GOP can win anything and are utterly incompetent. When Steele says it though the provocateurs jump to the other side and knock him. Or vice versa. Or anything that Steele says. Or any other Republican.

You don’t fool anyone for a second. We know what your agenda is.

This guy is absolutely right, and I vote for Republicans should shut up. Steele is spinning a lot of plates and trying to get Republicans elected. As long as, whenever there is a choice, he supports the more conservative primary candidate, then he should be left alone.

Palin should make some money first before she take that job imho. Protect herself and her family from bankrupcy first. Once she has her back secured, she can venture out.
If she takes that job, she wont be there long, maybe a year before she be campaigning to be president

“Steele Lashes Out At Critics: Fire Me Or Shut Up”

I agree with Michael, the RNC should fire him. But lets wait until after the mid terms and see what happens there.

If he worked for me I would have fired him a while ago, long before his probationary period was up for sure.

“I’m sorry Mr. Steele, I hate this part of the job but things just aren’t working out...”

He draws fire because he has all the audacity of a wet noodle.

I’d be a better replacement for him.

Steele: "You don't see the Democrats running around trying to beat up their national chairman or embarrass him," he added.

That's because the Dems' chairman is doing the same thing you are doing. Trashing and ignoring conservatives.

OK....you're fired! Now YOU shut up,and,for the love of God,somebody get Sarah in there!

Why not Sarah? If they can have the crazy screamer Dr Dean and nobody on the republican side dares criticize him why can't the GOP have Sarah? Oh wait, she's conservative, and those right-wingnuts need to be kept at the back of the bus at arms length. Trot them out only when you need votes. Kind of the way the DNC treats blacks.

And by the way, Steele now looks like a genius for not wasting money on “assclown Brown” in Massachusetts.

Yomin Postelnik’s running in Florida. Here are some of his tweets on Steele

Breaking News: Michael Steele buys Chicago Bears, Announces that Buccaneers will win the Super Bowl.

Steele-”Fire me or Shut up”- You said GOP won’t win in 2010 (LA Times says we will) thereby dampening GOTV & fundraising efforts. Goodbye..

Steele-”Fire me or Shut up”- OK, after u sent “past due” notices to all current RNC members soliciting donations, causing 1000s to quit, BYE

Michael Steele attacks every Republican in the nation - which I thought was a Democrat’s job - and then complains people are attacking him
