In Case You Missed It: RNC Chairman Michael Steele Appears On NBC's "Meet The Press"


RNC CHAIRMAN MICHAEL STEELE: "[T]here is a vibration out here that's unlike anything I've seen before. I've been on my 'Fire Pelosi' bus since September 15th. We get off the bus on October 30th. In that time I've seen a consistent ground swell of excitement and energy toward this election. The voters are tired of the fact that the federal government has not listened to them over the past two years, has moved in its own direction, at its own rhythm and they want to pull back on that. I think you're going to see a wave, unprecedented wave on election day that's going to surprise a lot of people." (NBC's "Meet The Press," 10/24/10)

STEELE: "I think [these midterms] puts us all in a point where, you know, you kind of look down the road to 2012 and say, for the Republicans, what kind of leader is going to emerge to deal more precisely with the economy, with our relations overseas, with, you know, those concerns that people have about jobs here in the country." (NBC's "Meet The Press," 10/24/10)

STEELE: "[W]e philosophically disagree with the direction the President is going. The spending, the debt, the deficit, the burden that's been placed on the backs of future generations is unsustainable. We see that the administration, along with Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid, are whistling past that graveyard, ignoring the hard facts that we cannot sustain nor afford the continued spending policies of this administration." (NBC's "Meet The Press," 10/24/10)

STEELE: "You'll see over the next two years, I think, the President try to step up his game a little bit. But we'll be there, step for step on all of these issues, clearly delineating the difference between a government that wants to take and redistribute wealth and a free people who are there to create that wealth and save it for the future." (NBC's "Meet The Press," 10/24/10)

Watched it yesterday and realized that despite being a political junkie for several years, I'm fed up with all the crap coming from both sides. If either side's platform is so strong and their ideals so high and mighty, then why can't they simply stick to the facts and ditch the demonization and spin.

8:28 If they did that then the Democrats would have nothing to say!

thanks 8;38, i guess you missed where I said BOTH sides are full of crap. Dummies like you who selectively choose to call out one side are the main reason these politicians stay in power.

Mr. Steele,

I wish you would back up your talk and respond to those who are willing to be the citizen legislators that our Founders envisioned. I have yet to receive a response from you regarding my open letter of 10/1/10.
