I liked Steele when he was Lt. Gov. of Maryland. He seemed very committed to pro-life, marriage, etc. When he was selected RNC Chair I was glad. He was the only thing that was keeping me in the GOP. I thought his talk about making the party attractive to people who don’t normally associate with the GOP meant that he would try to convince blacks and Hispanics of the correctness of the pro-life cause and the values in the Constitution. I did not think it meant that he would make the Republican party indistinguishable from the Democrats.
But that GQ interview showed me his true stripes.
There is nothing left to keep me. The party has officially left me. So I’m now an Independent. I don’t know if I’ll bother looking for another party.
