They chose a Black man and why not? Keeping up with the Dems is important.
(Good luck to him, even though I disagree with everything he's about.)

Yes, we can say that he's Black without being politically incorrect. The GOP is trying very hard to find a base.
Well, with the shape of the GOP, you'd never know. They might want to find fresh ideas from somewhere else.
Republicans: "We got us a black person, too"
Point taken. I'll reword it. "He seemed articulate . . . for a Republican."RACIST!!!!!!!!!!!!
God, you're quick, William. I was about to edit that, too, after merging the two threads.
OK, now that it's all cleaned up, how 'bout that Steele guy? I once saw him shred a couple of Leftie Hollywood types on the Bill Maher show.
and i would hasten to remind our esteemed original poster that republican administrations have nominated a black supreme court justice, the first black secretary of state and the first black female secretary of state.
so the underpinnings of the OP (that the republicans had to dig around to finally find a token black) is bullshit and insulting.
The big news isn't that the GOP elected a black man. It's that they elected a moderate. The right wing of the party (a.k.a. "the base") is not going to be happy.
Are you suggesting that the potential for "new ideas" is related to having a blackman heading the RNC?Let's see now if Repubs can come up with some ideas, other than "Cut taxes!"

Sorry if you took offense, it reads as if none of the previous RNC leaders (white) were capable and that now that a black man was elected that new ideas were possible.Utterly offensive, Toy. I simply meant to suggest that, now that they have a new leader, maybe they can begin a revival process they sorely need. You want to accuse me of being racist, have the balls to say so.
