Not to dis Mr. Steele but there’s another guy no one is mentioning that would be at the top of my list as a young, forward thinking, true Reagan conservative who would be an excellent well-spoken face of the party and he left office on his own terms.
J.C. Watts
You must’ve missed Watts constant praise for Obama and fundraising for black democrats this election...
Watts is like Colin Piss Poor Powell, putting race over principle.
JC Watts lost my respect when he was publicly saying (on Hannity’s show, maybe others) he might support Obama early in the election. Obama’ radical associations and views have been well known since he started running....for Watts to go on the record as considering voting for him clearly calls into question his conservative credentials, as well as his judgement. Additionally, he comes across to me as a pragmatist (read that “McCainist”), willing to bend to accomodate other points of view. We need someone who is willing to stand up for the conservative viewpoint and issue, and not waiver in the name of compromise or pragmatism.
