FRONT PAGE CONTRIBUTOR

Saxby Chambliss + The RNC Chairman’s Race

This morning at 10 o’clock we’ll have a live chat with Senator Saxby Chambliss on the front page. Feel free to stop by and submit your questions to Senator Chambliss.

Likewise, we would encourage each of the candidates considering the RNC Chairman’s race to think about posting here at RedState why they are interested in being RNC Chairman. We’d be glad to put those posts on the front page.

    I’d like to see Michael Steele. I love Newt, but it is time for a fresh face and new leaders to step up on a national level. Newt, for all his virtues, is part of the past and it is time to look to the future. The future is Steele, Jindal, and Palin and it is time for them to take a more prominent role in the conservative movement at large and the national Republican Party as well.

    Colmes tried to get him to say that we need to move to the middle and he slapped him around and told him NO that we need to get back to BASIC the Conservative model that has always worked…..He is in my head because he is consistantly saying what I say!

    I didn’t see Michael Steele on Hannity and the Moron, but I heard him on Hannity’s radio show the other day. I am in total support of Steele for the RNC Chair. He was terrific on the radio show. He is an unappologitic conservative, he is a very articulate and inspiring speaker, he is innovative and fresh and he has the ability of bringing a broader range of support under Reagans big tent without compromising the gippers principles.

    Fred Thompson is not interested in the spot, and wouldn’t accept it if offered.

    Mitt Romney says the exact same thing.

    Ken Blackwell would like to see Michael Steele or Sarah Palin, though he acknowledges that Palin is not a possibility. When Ken mentioned Steele, the audience of 700 erupted in applause.

    Kate O’Beirne is convinced it will be an insider, and very likely remain Mike Duncan. The political insiders that make the selection have a different criteria than advancing the conservative movement, and see it as mostly a fund raising position, not a leadership position.

    At this point, I would bet a lot of money that it will be either Duncan or Steele.

    I have much much more to post on this topic in the next few days, once I collect my notes.
