They say he was brilliant. Took a few wrong turns here and there, but who doesn't.Does his name rhyme with barber? The party kicked some serious rear end during his tenure.I would never deny Newt's great victory. Thank God it was relatively short-lived. I see a strong parallel between the early 90s and now. I'm sure that point is not lost on Tim Kaine.

Steele might do OK. I have no idea. I think it's funny that the RNC chair was claiming to be a Democrat less than 3 years ago.

One advantage I have in being a Marylander is that I know the Baltimore Sun. It is a once-proud newsapaer that 40 years ago was one of the very best in the country.

Now, it is but a sad shadow of its former self. It has degenerated to being the democrat party on deadline, aka the Pratt and Center Street Democrat Club. ( Pratt and Center being the former address of the paper).
As an example of how far they have fallen, they ran an editorial ( granted it was an editorial--but then it does represent their editorial position), that said the Mr. Steele, brought nothing to the Gubanatorial ticket " Other than the color of his skin". Would anyone permit that statement to be said of ANY liberal black politician. It betrays the mentality that blacks MUST be liberals, and support liberal politicians or they "don't know their place". And the democrats only tolerate blacks who know their place, and do the bidding of their masters.
As a result, anything thing in the Baltimore Sun is intended to advance their liberal/ democrat agenda. By the way, this is not an isolated event, I could post dozens of things they have either over-reported, under reported, or spiked until after an election.
Their agenda is well-known; they are not a source of anything near objective news.

I didn't say they were. I was responding, in part, to your comment that you hadn't heard anyone in Maryland say that the "Steele Democrat" slogan was intended to mislead.

I noticed that you didn't have anything to say about the phony sample ballots depicting Ehrlich and Steele as Democrats, the ones that Steele hired homeless people from Philadelphia to distribute. What is Steele's explanation on that one? Or how about this:Is that just more misinformation?

I have no explanation for it.

I am not too strong in favor of Steele. IMO, he is not conservative enough. He is more of a big government liberal than I would like.

the repubs will not succeed being democrat-lite. People who want democrats will vote for the genuine article; not a pretend version.
