This is the message of the Republican party that I long to return to. :3

Haven't you seen the new face of the Republicans yet?

Yes I have and it's a lame attempt to be like the Dems. The Republican's truly are a lost nation.

Ladies and gentlemen, I present the new RNC chairman, Michael Steele.

From all I can tell, Steele is a good guy.

My issue with the Republicans is that they are more focused on playing games to win votes than they are focused on principles and issues. The Republican party leadership is adrift and subject to the winds of change. They are without a True North setting and that's a prime ingedient for being lost.

From what I've seen of him, I concur Moto. Still, it's a lame attempt to be like you know who.

The Democrats have come a long way too....

I respectfully disagree.

If one Republican picked a black man to lead then yes, his decision would be a lame attempt to mimic Obama. But that's not what happened.

What happened is that a majority of Republicans voted to have Steele as their leader. The Republican party is still working well with regard to getting votes. That makes them a well-oiled fighting machine. What they haven't done is presented a plan that works. By plan I mean an explanation of how their philosophy fits into the big picture.

Bigdog persuaded me with his argument of how human omnivores are a natural fit in the ecosystem. He made sense. I want the same from my old Republican party. To me they sound like SJT and his argument for vegetarianism -- unpersuasive.

My point was the reason for choosing him obvious. Obama. That a majority chose him, I don't disagree with.
