And this guy did such a good job of running the RNC - leaving it totally disorganized and lacking in funds. He was totally incompetent. We did well in the 2010 midterms organically - but would have still possibly done substantially better with a functioning GOTV effort from the RNC.
These are people totally in the pocket of a corporatized lobby election market. They want American politics to be priced like a boutique industry and cannot understand why politics doesn’t work like a spreadsheet. Running an election campaign is not like selling a recycled media product. You cannot simply make soundbites and expect people to listen or take you seriously. It can work for a time, but eventually you employ people without talent who stop believing you. Eventually, people see through the façade of your unsubstantial movement on the things you promise, you inability to take risks, your lack of getting the job done. And so all you have is envy because people with better sense about peoples motives and or more courage than you will ever have will be recognized.
Talks like a democrat
Steele is worthless and must be ignored!!
Michael Steele—as the GOP-e’s token black do you mean like when you were shrilling for such party stalwarts as ‘Maverick’ McCain, RINOs Romney and Ryan, and Jeb Bush?
Michael Steele is free to help any Republican presidential candidate who he feels is superior to Trump.
Michael Steele might be able to make big money by making speeches outlining possible Republican policy.
Our “&*&*” is that to many republican candidates place politicing ahead of ballot disseminating, gathering,and “counting”.
Slavery was immoral.
Abortion is immoral.
Slavery was eliminated by many states individually before being eliminated nationally by Amendment XIII.
“By 1910, abortion was not only restricted but outright illegal at every stage in pregnancy in every state in the country. These abortion bans had some exceptions in instances to save the patient’s life — a decision that only doctors, 95% of whom were men, had the power to make.”
“Unsafe, illegal abortion was the cause of death for nearly 2,700 women in 1930.”
“In 1962, a pregnant TV host who ingested thalidomide could not obtain a legal abortion in the United States. The media tracked her journey to get an abortion in Sweden, and 52% of Americans supported her.”
“Between 1967 and 1973, four states — Alaska, Hawaii, New York, and Washington — repealed their abortion bans entirely, while 13 others enacted reforms that expanded exceptions. Instead of just allowing for abortion to save the patient’s life, they now allowed it in instances where a pregnancy was dangerous for the physical or mental health of a patient, fetal abnormalities, and when the pregnancy resulted from rape or incest.”
“We”?! “We” my ass!
There aim’t no “we”. There is us and RINO/Dems like you Steele. Name should be “Tin”.
From Wikipedia:
Sherri Chessen (born 1932), also known as Sherri Finkbine, is an American former children’s television host. She is also known as Miss Sherri, her role on the Phoenix version of the franchised children’s show Romper Room. In 1962, Chessen became a subject of controversy when she sought an abortion after discovering that the thalidomide she had been taking caused serious fetal deformities when used in the early stages of pregnancy.
In 1961, Chessen’s husband, Bob Finkbine, chaperoned a group of high school students on a European tour, where he purchased over-the-counter sedatives and brought the remainder home. Chessen took 36 of the pills in the early stages of her fifth pregnancy, unaware that they contained thalidomide, which could cause deformity in the fetus. Her physician recommended that she obtain a therapeutic abortion, the only type permitted in Arizona at the time. To publicize the danger of thalidomide, Chessen contacted the Arizona Republic. Although she was assured anonymity, her identity was not kept secret. The media identified her as “Mrs. Robert L. Finkbine” and “Sherri Finkbine”, even though she personally did not use that name.
Following the paper’s publication of Chessen’s story, the hospital where she planned to have the abortion, wary of the publicity, sought assurance that it would not be prosecuted. When such assurance was not forthcoming, the scheduled abortion was canceled. When her physician asked for a court order to proceed with the abortion, she and her husband became public figures, receiving letters and phone calls in opposition to her requested abortion. A few letters included death threats, and the FBI was brought in to protect her. She also lost her job hosting Romper Room. Chessen’s case was dismissed by Judge Yale McFate, who found that he did not have the authority to decide on the matter.
The Swedish obstetrician who performed the abortion told Chessen that the fetus had no legs and only one arm and would not have survived. The doctor stated that the fetus was too badly deformed to identify gender.

And if it was his kind of GOP what difference would it make?
Michael Steele was, is, and apparently will always be an empty suit with a GOPe paycheck in the mail.
I’m having continued trouble getting crazy about Mitch McConnell.
Gee, we get a Paul Ryan and a Michael Steele article on the same day. What a bonus!
Waiting for the Michael Steele Dossier.
Good.
says the former chair who voted for Obama and Hillary
Right now both Democrats and Republican parties in Congress are run under a model of strong armed blackmail and intimidation. Threats on committee positions, reelection campaign funding, or outright pork-barrel ear-mark bribes are the norm in securing votes along party lines.
There needs to be a new style of inspirational leadership that is enforced by an appeal to the voters. The Presidential Bully Pulpit use to be used for that.
Michael Steele......disgusting POS .....the ONLY thing he cares about is his BLACKNESS!
