You need to listen to Sunday night's down in Tuscon on 104.1, James T. Harris

James T. Harris is our Milwaukee's hidden treasure here in Wisconsin. God's speed to you all in AZ, you need our prayers in so many ways. My family's heart is with your plight.

I’m not seriously bagging on the guy, how could I, having never heard of him?

For the RNC to spring this complete unknown on us Friday night ahead of a three-day weekend just doesn’t transmit a lot of forethought.

Although it will keep the RATS busy trying to figure this guy out, and not on the Loughner circus.

Any truth to Reince Priebus being in favor of ObamaCare?

He’s not an unknown. He’s just not got the glitter you’re used to.

Was Priebus an early Tea Party supporter or a later groupie?

No, that’s a myth. A “link said he was for obamacare”. It’s all part of the liberal push to discredit him and anything conservative. There’s a link up thread if you want to search.

So now we know that his colleague at the law firm thinks Obamacare is constitutional. I wonder what Priebus thinks about it? Anyone have any statements he himself made on the issue?

He was up front and center, there from the start.

Weird that no one can answer the “oBomaCare” question. Apparently his law firm supported obamacare (according to the news on Google). But, would love to hear the factual update. Same with the Tea Party association, of which I believe he is a part of........

It’s obvious the GOP picked him to keep the money flowing in. They knew conservatives were no longer donating. So they are counting on this pick to get the conservatives writing checks once again.

Anybody who can make it through middle school while named Reince Priebus is probably tough enough. (Cash’s Law)

He’s not unknown to you, obviously, but what if the RNC elected some corn-farming Aggie you never heard of? Wouldn’t you be curious?

On the other hand, having zero name or other recognition might be a fantastic move if his motives and vision are as
pure as you claim. He’ll either be a mover the RATS didn’t see coming, or a Steele understudy that does nothing, either.

He’s been all over our talk shows stating constitutional values. He’s 100% pro constitutional. He’s the real deal.

You guys can link all your stuff. You can quote all your sources. The end of the day, when he’s interviewed by our local hosts, he’s 100% pro constitution.

He’s us. He’s you and me. He has a goofy name. He’s an American. Don’t judge him because you don’t know him. Judge him on what he does.

ALL of the choices for ‘11 RNC Chair have problems, so many conservatives will complain lots, no matter who won.

Am trying to get to know him, too, via that degree of seperation thing.

Some initial prudence may be the true conservative position.

My fingers are crossed. We’ve been so let down so many times. My expectations are about 2%.
