I don’t believe there was ever a chance that
cameras would be allowed in the Supreme Court.

Ugh, Mike Steele presided over the greatest election victory by the Republican party in the last 72 years in 2010.

Whatever he did seems to have worked well.

Then he was fired.

My judgment is neither here nor there regarding Mike, but really guys, how do winners do it?

How do people who know how to be winners decide which way to go next?

Now we are saddled with an RNC chairman who is so incompetent he failed to make sure voters in Virginia had a chance to vote the whole list of official Republican candidates.

The party apparatus and their running dog lackeys will not be forgotten for that one ever!

I"d expect more and more jokers pulling this sort of thing now that they know there's nobody at all in charge!

You found a blog that agrees with you. The ad exaggerates Virelli's fumbling, but I agree that obamacare is a tough sell. Bloomberg doesn't like it, but do they jump on Dem ads with a few seconds of audio?

I keep reading comments that the Dems play dirty and the GOP gets rolled.

Well, as I recall Mike was invited to attend several of the early Tea Party rallies and turned them down. It took a concerted push from the folks in the trenches to get him to finally pay attention, and I think the first one he spoke at was in Delaware.

The various Tea Party groups all had more of a hand in shaping that win for the Repubs than did the RNC hierarchy. JMHO.

Steele had little to do with the ass whoopin the dems suffered last election cycle.
Obammy and the dems grab on all things was responsible for that.
And as for not gettting the whole group on the Virginia ticket, are you sure those at the RNC didn’t have an agenda to get mitt elected?

i didnt go outta my way to find or prove anything that i necessarily agree with, beyond the fact the for multiple reasons the gop/rnc appear to be unable and unwilling to be effective politically, even when they *try*...

being a good fighter means that *they* must get down and dirty and mean...BUT NOT incredibly stupid and easily debunked, as the edited ad was trotted out into the light, just like the NBC Treyvon/Zimmerman 911 call...

bambam care a 'tough sell'...it shouldve been met with formal charges and action, anything possible, on day one...

but, as our conversation has gone the past couple days, the willingness of the population isnt *there* yet to stop the commie offensive...still playing *fair*, giving them opportunities to repent...its required by us...

as far as Atlas Shrugged, i have yet to read it [keep meaning to], but i bet our perceptions of Galt are the same, simply disengaging from the systems of the established society and being self sufficient/preserving, in the face of the monster...politically, or otherwise...

The LAST ELECTION was 2011 and we did not make the advances then that we did in 2010.

2010 took place under the NEW leadership ~ which does have the intent to force Mitt down our throats.

That, btw, is understood by everyone. I think they want to lose it all.

Given that progressives self-define their movement as ‘progressing beyond the original intent of the constitution’ in order to free the government from, as Mr. Obama famously said, the “charter of negative rights” (rights that the government does NOT have) — the author is right when he says conservatives “hate the constitution.”

Of course they do - that is the whole point of their 70 year effort to render it moot!
