Steele is a great guy but, imo, not the right man for the position of RNC Chair. How can he represent a party he disagrees with so much? Steele would also be damaged politically in Maryland if he became the poster boy for the Republican Party. Maryland does not elect Republicans.

Of course he does, he is the defacto head of the party.

We are doomed!!!!

Aaaaaagh!!! Enough with the "Doomed" and "God help us all" talk! We survived Carter, we survived Bill, we can survive Pelosi and the idiots running the Republican party right now.

If he has a 100% ACU rating in 2005 with a lifetime rating of 96%, I am curious as to why so many are upset?

I'm going to puke.

Martinez ?

(Insert vomit sounds here. . . . )

Great news if all those uncounted ballots were in Hayworth's Dist. As of lastnight they had it as JD losing by 5526 votes.

the hispanic vote went against the GOP last week, that Bush got 40% of the 6% Hispanic population eligible to vote in 2004 and it dropped to 35% this election. Everything I've read on the subject says they bring their voting patterns from Mexico with them

We are not a monolith, and the HR family hasn't brought anything with us "from Mexico" in 6 generations.

By the way, Miss Miers' friend, Supreme Court Justice Nathan Hecht, was easily reelected on Nov. 7. He had no Democrat opposition, only a challenge from the Libertarian Party. He has been on the court since 1988. I haven't heard a peep out of Harriet in some time.

If you don't have first hand knowledge of their marital situation you ought not be posting rumors.

How pathetic.

You are making the unfortunate mistake of letting reality get in the way.

That quite often isn't popular in freeperland.

"...but Steele is a RINO, remember the "off record" bashing he gave the GOP..."

Exactly why I like him. Or Tancredo. The GOP needed a bashing for being mealy-mouthed wimps. We've got to stop thinking "GOP", as if that's the be-all and end-all; it's not. We've got to get in to the mindset of "conservative" -- people who love America, its values, its traditions and its LAWS. We have LAWS that require immigrants to come here in a prescribed manner, and many of the "GOP", starting at the TOP, want to reward them for their illegal activities. Conservatives happen to think everyone should follow the law and play by the rules to save our country.

I know you think we are all being too picky.

But, you have to admit that we need someone more dynamic...

President Bush is a dynamic, energetic person..I LOVE listening to him speak...I turn the channel when Martinez speaks.

BTW..I have been told by several posters that it IS President Bush that picks the person..I had posted that I didn't think the POTUS does...

I APOLOGIZE EVERYONE, I WAS WRONG...

OK I agree, but at least let me down to bleed a bit to rise and fight again.

Still trolling for hispanic votes, which we'll never get as the media has been successfully radicalize them into a dem voting block.

Hipsanic 77% dem
Jewish 87% dem
Black 90% plus or minus every year.

Kind of like NJ "republicans" who do nothing but pander to the voting blocs who NEVER vote for them and forget about the conservatives.

They HAD a candidate in Bret Schundler who was the ONLY republican to ever get majorities of the minority vote and what did they do when he got the nomination for governor? Abanded him, wouldn't fund or support him, campaigned against him, called him too "extreme" suggested he might be racist, bigoted, homophobic, the same old sh!t they use against every republican.

Stop effing pandering and stand for something.

I can think of hundreds of democrats that deserve our criticism. I just can't imagine all this bashing doing any good at all.

I know nothing about Mr. Martinez so I don't feel it's my place to trash the man.
