They’re an underwelming bunch, that’s for sure. I think they ought to go ahead and re-elect Steele. He’s got the experience and should only get better.

“the Barack Obama fund-raising juggernaut of 2012”???

Seriously, the unemployment levels could be in the twenties by then, his polls are tanking, and the lecture at Politico STILL think there’ll be a “fund-raising juggernaut” to re- elect the leader of the current regime in the WH???

I don’t know whether to laugh in disbelief, or shudder at what Soros & Co. Have in mind for my children’s future!!! :-(

I agree. Maybe Steele will learn something from this experience and move further right, we can hope anyway.

Behold the downfall of the so-called RNC. If the alleged leaders don’t follow the mission statements of the RNC, time to jettison the whole mess.

Time for a NEW RNC to rise from the ashes of this corrupt one, with all the corruption burned off!

Whoever started the ‘Stick it to Steele’ propaganda - it seems to be working;)

Probably the same wingnuts who want Sarah to suffer.

Oh I hope not....I didn’t hear that. Who do you like now? I was not ‘wowed’ by any of them.

How does this happen over and over? What happened to Mike Duncan? I liked him. He wasn’t invited to this debate or he dropped out.

Something is very off.

Almost like Soros has got a hand in it.

My first thoughts were that the Left will try to infiltrate the RNC to remake
it in such a way that nobody will give them money and disrupt the process
so badly that it would guarantee a RAT win for decades. Taking one for the team Lib.

I don’t much care for any of the ones running now, except Steele. I know you don’t like him, but I like the way he stood up for Christine O’Donnell when the establishment types were trashing her day in and day out.

If I remember right, Haley Barbour is supporting Reince Priebus and Priebus has been endorsed by some tea party backers and FreedomWorks. One of the CO RNC members told me he is supporting him as well.

If Freepers want to offer some input, pro/con on any of the candidates, you need to contact your RNC member.

List of RNC Members who will be voting.

Also remember, charisma is not the main characteristic we need. It’s the ability to fund raise and help the GOP win in November 2012. We also need someone who will support the tea party choices once they win primaries, as well as not alienate the GOP conservative base throughout the country. Sadly, Steele has done that. He has gotten better but his past actions have not gone well, which is why so many conservatives wanted to replace him last year.
