#3 For starters, if Priebus wants to keep the RNC a relevant force in politics, they NEED to embrace the grassroots and the tea party while telling the country club elite to sit down and share. The damn RINOs have pissed the regular voter off so badly, they don't work with the RNC and even deliberately work against them and their wishy-washy candidates. The time for a consensus on how things are run from everyone is necessary.

#4 at AOSHQ in high celebration:
New RNC Chief: 25th Century Mogolian/Hun Conqueror From the Future, Reince Priebus
—Ace

No, seriously, he has a science-fiction villain name.

I like it, but "Reince Priebus" seems like it should have an "Overlord" or "StarKhan" in front of it.

#6 I will give him a year and make a decision then. For now, I will support the party. Lets have a look a year from now and see how things look.

#8 New guy is an insider, part of the upper crust GOP. And thus may be part of the problem. He has a few months before the knives start being sharpened.

RNC tends to be way too insider oriented, and that blindness is what cost them even greater success last cycle.

But in any case good riddance to Steele, who was a flopper.
