| Six-way race for GOP chairman heats up |
 |
Source: USA Today
Republicans plunge into another election campaign today, this one a six-way race for party chairman that has erupted into an argument over how to recover from an unpopular presidency and crushing defeats at the polls. Half of the candidates to lead the Republican National Committee (RNC) are Southerners: current Chairman Robert "Mike" Duncan of Kentucky, South Carolina Chairman Katon Dawson and former Tennessee chairman Chip Saltsman. Former Ohio secretary of State Ken Blackwell and former Maryland lieutenant governor Michael Steele are black. Saul Anuzis, the Michigan GOP chairman, is a Harley-Davidson rider, an ex-union member and the son of an autoworker. The RNC's 168 members pick a new chairman Jan. 28. The race spills into public view today with a debate sponsored by Americans for Tax Reform. The contest has been roiled by Saltsman's holiday gift to members — a CD that includes a song called Barack the Magic Negro, sung to the tune of Puff, the Magic Dragon— and suspicions among some RNC members that Duncan is maneuvering unfairly to get re-elected.

Looks like a prescription for failure no matter how it goes down.
Since the GOP seems to never get beyond the veggire bin when looking for "acceptable" people, whomever gets the shot, will be trying to rebuild w/a stick of dynamite. Have fun GOP, I know I will while watching this debacle...  |

dirt arena. The winning loser than successfully turns a dying party into a dead party by going so conservative that only white supremists and bigots are left, leaving America to heal from the damage their party has caused the country since the assassination of Lincoln.
Who thinks this would be a good reality show? |
