Michael Steele: 'Lot Of Interest' In Eric Cantor Serving As RNC Chairman
Talking Points Memo ^ | June 14, 2014 | Sahil Kapur

Eric Cantor, next Republican National Committee chairman?

Former RNC chair Michael Steele thinks it's a possibility after the House majority leader was defeated Tuesday in a Virginia Republican primary.

"With the upcoming presidential election, there's a lot of interest in Eric Cantor serving as national chairman of the RNC," Steele said Saturday on MSNBC's "Up With Steve Kornacki."

"In fact I think he'd be interesting because he started dialogues on poverty and some other issues that were sort of outside of what Republicans have traditionally talked about. So he could bring a very interesting voice into that space," he said.

Meghan McCain, Arnold Schwarzenegger and Charlie Crist should be in the lineup, too, shouldn’t they?

This headline made me laugh out loud.

Why should NWO waste time/money blackmailing fresh puppets when they already have Cantor the trained chimp?

Just change his job title and keep the MozzComm train rolling.

I’d like to see Dave Agema in the chair just because they hate him for being honest about gay marriage and breathing.

Eric, take a hint and just go away for a while, a very long while.

When are the people going to realize they are being tag teamed and by buying a ticket to sit and watch they are the real suckers.

And your solution is?

Get the recommendations of Steele and Cantor... then go in the opposite direction.

Unfortunately, the country club lemmings will follow these fools over the edge.

Cantor has long been known as one of the best fund-raisers in the country, and not just for himself.

BS

Conservative Republicans have been talking about poverty for decades.

We just don’t talk about giving the poor cell phones to get them out of poverty.

We talk about getting them jobs by getting the government out of the way of job creators. Things like cutting taxes and reducing the regulation overload creates jobs and reduces poverty.

Things like welfare and endless unemployment benefits do not reduce poverty. Importing the poor from third world countries increases poverty.

We need a Republican party chairman that understands these basic principles and can articulate them effectively.

Sure. Choose a loser, so he can bring his style of losing to the whole party. Makes perfect sense.

You got it!

We who live in Dist. 7 of Virginia showed the nation how much we think of Cantor by rejecting him for a no-name, money-less but clear thinking conservative.......

So the GOP decides to give us the finger and make him head of the party........duh! Is there no common sense left in the GOP at all?!?

One thing is clear. They are not only dumb - but deaf.......

Why I left the Republican party is focused in this headline.

Once this crap gets in your blood it makes you feel like they owe you a living. Sort of like welfare only at a higher pay scale.
