Michael Steele: those of you who wish to obstruct, get ready to get knocked over.
Steele Wins RNC Chair Election, 91-77 over Katon Dawson

Transcript of his speech:

'As a litte boy growing up in this town—this is awesome.

It is with a great deal of humility and a sense of service that I accept and appreciate and thank all of you for the opportunity to serve as the next chairman of our very proud, very strong, and our very, very hard-working Republican National Committee.

To our friends, to those who support us, to those who believe in the ideals, those conservative ideals that make us the strong, proud party that we are. To Americans who believe in the future of this country. To those who stand in difference with us, it's time for something completely different, and we're gonna bring it to them.

We're gonna bring this party to every corner, every boardroom, every neighborhood, every community and we're gonna say to friend and foe alike: We want you to be a part of this, we want you to worth (work) with us, and for those of you who wish to obstruct, get ready to get knocked over.'

2. He is such a tool. He shows up on Real Time and has no original
thought in his head. That's what the repugs want though.

5. I fully expected him to parrot Obama
He started talking about doing things differently...

Then follows with the same old republican threats.

Fail.

7. How can an impotent minority party pretend it can knock ANYONE over?
Also, how come Republicans never have lips?

9. It would serve them better to at least pretend
they're going to try to work with us.

Power and control is all that matters to them.

8. So, he just declared war on the Republic Party.
Steele will be the gift that keeps on giving, mark my words.

He will preside over the complete and utter fracturing and disintegration of the Republic Party as we know it.

The racists, gold bugs, and secessionist states-rights nutjobs will flee to the Libertarians leaving Old White Money with no one to carry water for them anymore.

I love it.

10. This doesn't even make any sense. Who's even trying to obstruct them?
Republicans are like the unmatched zen masters of fighting make believe conflicts.

11. I think he is talking to the freelancers in his own fractured party. A call to rally and "unite'".
The usual.

12. yeah fucking hypocrite
funny how when you were running for Senate in Maryland you wanted nothing to DO with the GOP..and you talked about being a fucking independant thinker. So now, that you couldn't pull the wool over the eyes of the liberal voters of MD you are gonna run the RNC.
Jeezus I could barely take 4 years of this idiot as lieutenant governor..:puke:

20. What? fuck, Steele
If a gay republican is a log cabin republican... Then Micheal Steele is a slave cabin republican.

I still remember him running in Maryland, I'm sorry I can stand him...
