Priebus launches RNC reelection bid
Republican National Committee Chairman Reince Priebus formally launched his re-election campaign Thursday in a letter and YouTube video sent to the 168-member committee. …
“I am formally announcing my campaign for a second term as RNC Chairman today. As I mentioned to you be email just before Thanksgiving, I appreciate the strong support by so many of the RNC members. I am humbled to have over 150 members pledge their public endorsement to me for a second term.
This is not a decision I made lightly, but we have unfinished business and our country and Party need our leadership over these next two years. We were able to accomplish a great deal these past two years, and I have not forgotten just how much work we had to do when I was first elected. Over those two years we lifted the RNC out of the over $24 million of debt, we restored donor confidence and fielded one of the strongest Republican ground games in the history of our Party.”

Nope, time to go. You lost the easiest election in history and you didn’t get us a more than winnable senate. Better than Steele, but short on results.

He should be reelected only if that nasally, singsong voice is silenced. Hmmm…What actor would be good for Reince Priebus’s voice-overs? Tom Bosley? Nah–dead.

I can support him. He has done a great job. Much better than any of his recent predecessors.

First, one formally runs for RNC chair now… okay. Is Priebus going to start running commercials in OH? Second, I’m fine with this. He is good at raising money and hopefully he learns stuff from the last election.
