So, how is it that he screwed up so badly?
Hey, there are guys who spent the whole season on the bench who end up with Superbowl Rings too.
I'd say he was a negligible factor in whatever victories we have. I would give more credit to 1) Pelosi, Reid and Obama for showing their true colors 2) The Tea Party 3) DeMint and Palin, who seemed to be the main drivers of alot of the candidates.
Hopefully Steele does a good job doling out cash.
Steele's most important job, in my opinion, was fixing the primary system for the GOP so that are candidates are not decided by states like New York and New Jersey that will never provide electoral votes for a GOP Presidential candidate, and by cross over Democrats.
The core Red-State Republicans are the ones who should have the most say in choosing our nominee, followed by Republicans in cross over states.
I don't like Democrats or "Independents" helping us choose candidates.
I won't put the whole blame for the 2008 debacle on the process, but it certainly did not help us get to a winning ticket with McCain/Palin.
