LITTLETON, Colo. - Republicans better stop whining and start thinking of new electoral strategies to return to prominence, the new head of the Republican National Committee said Friday.

"I’m tired of seeing the same old, same old," RNC Chairman Michael Steele told about 750 Republicans at a party dinner in suburban Denver. "I’m tired of hearing the same old arguments. I’m tired of hearing the complaining."

Get rid of Steele, he is not what the GOP needs. The GOP needs a STRONG Conservative that is not afraid to open his mouth and scream Conservative Principals.

Am I the only that remembers 'Max Headroom'. Just wondering if that is what the News Media and our government is becoming.

I tried to read the article at that link...it was too painful. He boasts of liking Snoop Dog & P Diddy? And liking Sinatra and the “Pack Rats”?!?!

Can you imagine what Sinatra would have said if someone had asked him about “The Pack Rats”? And then the reporter says, ‘I think you mean the Rat Pack...’

Why can’t this buffoon marry Megan McCain and live happily in La-La Land ever after?

Piss on this clown. I’ve already found the door, and I’m glad to have gone through it. I’m sick of supporting backstabbers.

GREAT point!!

He should be out there taking every available minute to promote the principles of Conservatis,

Principles of Conservatism are the principles of freedom and success.
Principles of liberalism are the principles of oppression and failure.

I’m tellin’ you....

I had thought he was an idiot, but I didn’t know he was Olympic-class.

He’s a lot like the “Worst Couple” (I can’t write “First Couple” about them) Lots of self-esteem, big mouths, and dumb as a box of hammers.

“Republicans better stop whining and start thinking of new electoral strategies.”

What are your suggestions Mike. What’s your strategy Mike. You got the job now produce or get off the pot.

We’re tired of the wining and hearing the same old arguments. We’re tired of hearing the complaining of a do nothing GOP chairman.

You people do realize that you are getting to see Mr. Steele's comments through the liberal AP filter, right?

That said, Mr. Steel needs to get his message out better to the Republican rank-and-file, as well as to the reachable nontraditional voters that share Republican values. He also needs to get Congressional Republicans to show a unified front of core Republican values each and every time they are in front of the media or their constituents.

The best defense against the Democrats and their media cronies is to stay on a winning conservative message.

Sure Steele you need to leave NOW and we return to our roots and along the way get rid of every RINO. That would bring back the 8 to 10 million core Conservative voters we lost at the last election because of you Fraud Moron Republicans.

Read his linked comments at post 40. I don’t think it is filtered - but goodness knows, it NEEDS to be!

Frank Sinatra and the Pack Rats...ouch!

Love him or hate him (for sitting on the couch with her whack-job-ness), the only person speaking that sounds anything like a Conservative today in America that has any real experience with hand to hand combat with the left is Newt Gingrich.

And, he has boiled our next victory down to five rather salient points or “the five threats that America faces,”

1) Islamic Terrorists and rogue dictatorships armed with nuclear or biological weapons.
2) The removal of God from American public life.
3) The loss of patriotism and sense of America’s history.
4) The US’s decline in economic supremacy (primarily because our kids are not taking the hard sciences and math and getting solid educations).
5) The budget burden on Social Security and Medicare (just made worse by this obomination).

If you haven’t read his book, “Winning the Future,” it is a good read — I think he should be the RNC Chair — I believe he could narrow our focus and stop wandering all over the damn place — that would be a nice start. Steele should just pick three major conservative points and then just hammer and hammer and hammer them into the hearts and minds of Americans. IMO...

Get this guy a lollipop and escort him into the land of the Munchkins where he can quietly pass his remaining years.

Can anyone imagine Reagan getting up on a podium and espousing such nonsense?

The GOP brand is sullied by Steele, not the other way around.
