I thought we were angling for Steele from the get-go. I look at this as merely a Market correction. It needed to happen.

What took so long? This guy is an amnesty stooge and open borders loser. We need someone with (Michael) Steele in his (her) spine.

Thank you Lord for coaxing this loser out of an important GOP post.

Here’s the short list of replacements:

Laura Ingraham (she would kick butt)
MM (takes no prisoners)
Karl Rove (wouldn’t this just drive NOBALLS AT HARDBALL crazy?)
Scooter Libby (heart attacks all around at MSPDQSOOLNBC)

Karl Rove (just to watch the usual suspects implode!!)

This is probably wrong, but my emotional maturity level requires that I do a victory dance over this RINO POS who is the very face of what went wrong in 2006. So, here goes:

Ha! You effing douchebag open borders nitwit! You one term wonder, you boneheaded, racist, illegal-alien-hugging bozo! Ho, ho, go back to Florida and enjoy your retirement in Boca Raton! You stink, mister! You’re a putz! We’ve got Jim Webb signing letters lying about Rush Limbaugh and embarrassing everyone in his entire family history because of losers like you! (OK, that one I’ll give you.) You combover-looking NAU-loving Roverman! Just … just … go away!

Aahhh…

I hope a real conservative is able to beat Mel in the next GOP primaries.

I’m no electoral expert, but Florida seems like a 50/50 state, and he has the Cuban immigrants locked up by race. No way can you beat him in a GOP primary, imo.

The damage has already been done. It’s over. The Dems will rule because of their complete lack of morals. Makes perfect sense, no?

Anne Coulter would kick ass and take names. The libs would lose what few brain cells they have remaining.

Newt!

I love it, but won’t it be a little … uncomfortable having the head of the RNC with more brainpower than all of the candidates, combined?

By: thirteen28

Newt!

DANEgerus on October 3, 2007 at 6:30 PM

That would be a great choice, as would be Michael Steele, or someone else that can get the base excited.

This is good news (Martinez impending resignation), as it provides an indication that somebody in the RNC might actually be listening.

To Mel Martinez: Don’t let the door hit you where the good Lord split you.

To Michael Steele: You’ve got my vote.

IIRC there was much discussion of Michael Steele in the comments here before Jorge’s amigo Mel got the job before. I also recall a lot of people realizing that Steele’s long term prospects would be brighter if he didn’t take the position. He’d make a great VP for Fred Thompson.

1. Jim DeMint
2. Michael Savage
3. Jeff Sessions

I won’t even consider giving them a dime as long as Amnesty Mel is associated with the RNC, and I’ve written that in big black marker on the last couple of surveys they sent me. Perhaps I wasn’t alone. And they better not just replace him with another amnesty shill, or it won’t change a damn thing.

ReubenJCogburn on October 3, 2007 at 6:13 P

You definitely weren’t alone.

In case anyone from the RNC is reading this, I cast another vote for Michael Steele.

Personally, I’d also like Rick Santorum, but I’ve heard too much bitterness from moderate friends in PA when they talk about the guy. And, as good as Newt, Tom Delay, or any other of the old guard have been, it’s time for new blood. Michael Steele is just the guy for that.
