If the writer gets his way, Obama will win again in 2012. I can’t abide with the racist insults hurled at Steele, and conservatives should be careful before embrasing the kind of divisive politics this writer calls for.
I support Hoffman, and wish that all good Republicans had from the start, but I will not kill the party because I got my feelings hurt.

Where are you finding racism in the article? Calling Steele Incompetent, RINO, or dumba$$, is definately not racist.
I can only assume you are referring to the assertion that he is an 'affirmative action panicky mistake' as the racist comment. Lets be blunt and avoid the traps of political correctness. Michael Steel was a one term Lieutenant Governor who was catapulted to be the first black head of the RNC nine days after the first black President took office. Mr. Steele is a strong supporter of affirmative action.
Only 3% of 'African-Americans' vote republican, and 'African-Americans' make up only 17% of the population. It is mathematically possible that he was selected based strictly on his qualifications, but the odds that he was the most qualified candidate not factoring in race are astronomical.
If his race was a factor in his selection, and it is a policy that HE supports, is it racist?
I support Hoffman, and wish that all good Republicans had from the start, but I will not kill the party because I got my feelings hurt.
What was the racist insult hurled at Steel?
