The problem with Steele’s pronouncement is that it will drive away social conservatives....who are the strongest voting bloc

You do not win elections by driving away your strongest voting bloc....you win on core principles

If you truly want to bring in non-traditional Republicans....you do that with a commitment for lower taxes and job creation. In 2010 and 2012 those will be key issues.

Exactly. This should be a time of getting right with the base. It SOUNDS like he’s joined the chorus that was attacking Sarah after the election, and saying that the problem was that the pubes didn’t run far ENOUGH to the left. People like Chris Shays, the FORMER congressman.

So be it. I’m to the point of just letting these people have at it. Like Puff Daschle’s tax problems. We can’t stop them, so let him in and hang it like a chicken leg around their neck in the next election. Except the STUPID party won’t do that. In fact, they probably won’t even find anyone willing to run AGAINST O Bama. Dictator for life, what we got.
