It would be useful if they talked about "why" people have stopped giving to the RNC.
Well, I’m not sure that I’ve seen ALL of the candidates, but those candidates I have looked at are all WORSE than Steele. And that guy who quit the RNC and loudly denounced Steele was a leftist who previously worked for McCain and Romney.
Don’t be fooled. Much of this attack on Steele is coming from the RINO left. They used him up, and now they want to put in someone else who will do what the insiders want.
I’ve been as unhappy about Steele as anyone. But we should not assume that the person who replaces him is going to be better. Not without taking a pretty close look.
Well I’m not one of them and I think he’s done a terrible job.
Why, it's because they're all RACISTS! < / sarc off >
Well I can’t stand him and I won’t give them a dime until he’s gone. I think he’s an Obastard supporter, he’s wishy washy, can’t stand him.
I’m with you, thus far. I am watching LIVE o C-SPAN now.
I have read that Maria Cino is pro-abortion.
Does anyone have any idea/facts/intuition as to whom we should be rooting for.
I have watched this for only 10 minutes, but so far I am very unimpressed.
The first two names are not good after all. The one is a Lobbyist and the other did some unquestionable things. The third guy Saul seems good (I think). Most are all no names.
“Does anyone” I guess that should have read, “Does any FReeper”.
However, conservatives need to ask themselves why the Beltway GOP establishment wants Steele gone so badly. Every one of these challengers is establishment all the way and at least 3 of the 4 challengers have a particular potential 2012 candidate they support.
We need impartiality in the upcoming presidential cycle.
I encourage people NOT to donate to the RINO National Committee
Well I’m rooting for Steele, from what I can see, he’s the best of the bunch.
My reading, FWIW, is that Steele personally is a pretty decent, conservative guy. But when they gave him the job, they gave him his instructions. And everyone working “under” him at the RNC also gave him his instructions.
As a result, almost every time he opened his mouth, he flubbed.
But over the last half year or so, he’s been a lot better. He’s kept his mouth shut. He did NOT join the chorus of Rove and company who worked so hard to undermine the Tea Party candidates, and caused several of them to lose. He has been willing to talk with Sarah. Can anyone imagine Karl Rove talking with her?
But apart from that, there’s the other issue. Several of the other candidates are far WORSE than Steele. They are pro-aborts. They are RINO operatives with connections to Mitt and Juan.
Sure, if we can get somebody better than Steele in there, fine. But let’s not fall for these RINO tricks and sit back while they install somebody much WORSE in the job. Because that’s what they intend to do.
They know that Steele has been used up. But I suspect that they may also know that Steele has decided to revolt against his handlers, and that’s why they are so desperate to get rid of him.
RINO’s did not foresee the rise of the TEA Party and resent Steele for not actively opposing it. They want somebody who can short-circuit and undermine the TPM. That is first priority for the RINO’s. Winning elections is a distant second.

Absolute malarky.
Steel has managed to raise money in spite of many of us no longer donating to the RNC. I believe he is the best of those running, but the justifiably angry masses must be appeased. I grow so tired of the ill informed knee jerks clamoring for heads. Forget the libs. We are our own worst enemies.

Talk about truth-in-advertising!
She could change her first name to RINO, and be RINO CINO.
Who do you have in mind?
