You have a black or Hispanic candidate you can replace him with?
I honestly think replacing him with Blackwell is a mistake. Blackwell is more than confident but he has to blame Steele for ruining that idea. Picking Blackwell after Steele will make it look like playing politics more than nothing else and Blackwell will simply not have credibility.
Pick a non-Hispanic white chair and that creates bad publicity too. The way to go is probably with a Hispanic-American chairman. There are plenty of Hispanic Republicans in Texas and Florida. If you picked a Hispanic chair you would actually be going after a voter demographic we could get and it won’t be as transparent as picking Blackwell.
How about we just dump the frickin' racial politics and put the best person for the job into the position. What a concept: Imagine, hiring someone because they are competent not because they are of a particular race or ethnicity!
