Ho! From his lips to Rush's and Ann's ears.

Great response, Cat! These extreme guys, Rush and Ann, are just so out of touch. Now, they appear to have a man in black face stepping and fetching. Let's see what he does. His start ain't good!

Can they really be so blissfully ignorant of how far behind the curve they are? To counter Hillary, they gave us Sarah Palin. To counter Obama...Michael Steele???

Inspiration cannot be countered with a message of exclusion and fear, no matter the messenger's race/gender.

Jennifer - You asks a good question and make obvious correlations. But I sincerely do not think that the Republican leadership realizes what they're doing, as they have played the game for so long.

The leadership of this Party appears to be on auto-pilot; in fact, they are the ones who appear to be "blissfully ignorant." The public, as was made clear in the presidential election, is not.

While I have been rather harsh on the selection of Mr. Steele, I am an equal opportunity nonpartisan thinker.

I believe this attitude will really help them in 2012. Like it did in 2008.

You know, I am thinking about writing a book. It's one of those self-help books about banging your head against a wall. One huge step to take toward succeeding at such an art...do the same things over and over and expect different results.

That's what the GOPers are doing right now.

Stepping and fetching? Judith, ROFL!!!! Yup. That's about the size of it. The Republicans' answer to Obama.

I laughed aloud at your comment, CJ.
