Well, you're probably going to be an unhappy camper, then.
A Steele supporter posted a link earlier to the new chairman's "Blueprint."
Part of his plan is do exactly that.
"We’ll also recruit candidates who can cross the ethnic, gender, and demographic divides that too often separate our country and cause confusion about our Party." - Michael Steele
Folks can figure out for themselves what that means, exactly.
Not exactly. It's fine to recruit candidates of any ethnicity if they share conservative Republican values. What I think is disastrous is devising programs to appeal to specific ethnic groups, such as amnesty for all and the Bush/Rove/McCain pander to Hispanics strategy.
If those ethnic candidates are recruited to go out and out Dem the Dems, then the strategy will fail. If they really are Republicans such as Jindal, then there will be successes.
it means a more moderate GOP on social issues and entitlements
freepers are not very informed these days..sad...all they see is color
Absolutely nothing wrong with that. It is what is needed if you ever want to win an election.
“”We’ll also recruit candidates who can cross the ethnic, gender, and demographic divides that too often separate our country and cause confusion about our Party.” - Michael Steele “
If they share conservative values, then of course they are welcome in the party. Unfortunately, the Dems seem to have made themselves into the savior of everyone-—blacks, hispanics , women, “poor”, etc. The Dems have marginalized the Republicans into the party of the white guys. We need to educate people as far as what our values are. Hope Mr. Steele can be a leader in this regard.
