Some of the most racist people are Democrats. Its a different kind of racism smile in your face. You can't tell me that it does not benefit blacks to have a voice in both parties.
House Slave had shot his mouth off again. He knows he has no juice in the party,just a cheerleader chosen to diss Obama. All of this Affirmative Action talk and they chose this man just because he is Black not of his qualifications.
Bottom line; there’s a lotta black folks today who had they been around back in the mid 1800’s would have been strongly in favor of the Supreme Court and the Dred Scott decision. These same black folks would’ve cheered, celebrated, and went right back “home”. :smt009
By Chris Cillizza November 8, 2006 Maryland Lt. Gov. Michael Steele (R), who came up just short yesterday in his Senate race against Rep. Ben Cardin (D), is mulling a bid for the chairmanship of the Republican National Committee, according to an informed GOP source. ...RNC Chairman Ken Mehlman... has made outreach to the African American community a priority during his time as head of the party, and Steele would be seen as a logical successor to that effort. http://voices.washingtonpost.com/thefix/republican-party/steele-for-rnc.html Obama Declares His Candidacy Invoking Lincoln, Illinois Senator Opens White House Bid By JAKE TAPPER and KATIE HINMAN SPRINGFIELD, Ill., Feb. 10, 2007 http://abcnews.go.com/GMA/Story?id=2865196&page=1
This is absolutely correct. The democratic party has been able to take the black vote for granted for entirely too long. I think a lot of blacks who are conservative-leaning are afraid to even voice their opinion for fear of the type of back-lash that Steele is receiving.
I am convinced that Michael Steele is a double agent, he has to be a democrat sent undercover to destroy the republican party. There is no other explanation for this guy.:smt009
Steele is calling Obama an affirmative action candidate, yet he is precisely the one who got chosen squarely because of the hue of his skin. I dare anyone to tell me with a straight face that Steele would have been voted as head of the RNC had Obama lost the election. Or that Palin would have been picked as McCain's running mate had Hillary been on the ticket. You know for a party that talks a good game about "merit" and loves to misrepresent MLK's words, the Republican Party sure can bring their A-game when it comes to assembling the United Colors of Bennetton.
Once again..... you CAN NOT be serious. Polls and statistical data are used many times to prove one person's opinion, many times they have no validity to them, just ask the republicans. They were so fooled by the polls and statistical data about a black man winning the presdency of the United States that they couldn't even DREAM Barack Obama would be victorious...... OOPS.
Don't fight it man, RR is one of the greatest ever, and several polls from various sources reflect that. Maybe you can find just one credible ranking of greatest presidents that doesn't include him? Come on, just one.
To be fair, Rasmussen was one of the few polling firms to have accurately predicted Obama's popular vote margin (alongside the awesome Nate Silver of FiveThirtyEight of course). But everyone knows they're a favorite of the GOP. Scott Rasmussen was a paid pollster for the Bush/Cheney 2004 campaign.
Obama was as much of token as Steele was. How long was he a senator? Democrats got fish to the fish hook. Remember how they threw oreo cookies at micheal steele? But I guess that's okay because it was the left.
It is not true that Obama was inexperienced, http://www.opednews.com/articles/Barack-Obama-and-the-Myth-by-John-Wilson-081004-201.html, and no it was not okay to throw oreos at Steele.
