Oops.
Totals for Round 6: Priebus 80 Anuzi 37 Cino 34 Wagner 17
Bummer. It looks like my friend Ann Wagner, a true conservative despite those horrible immigration rumors, is done. If Reince “Lets execute Obama” Priebus wins, the RNC is in big trouble.

Ann Wagner drops. So sad. We do love her in Missouri.

Round 7:
3 candidates left
One RINO CINO- an Obamacare lobbyist and “former” abortion supporter
One Who is Steele-lite.
One who is conservative choice- Anuzi.

Round 8:

Oops… Again.

Reince “Let’s Execute Obama” Priebus Wins!

Priebus 97
Anuzi 47
Cino 28
Nice work, RNC.

  1. Dear God, don’t let Cino win.

  2. uh oh.

  3. RINO’S ALL….. Not one penny to the RNC should threy vote in another RINO

  4. Wagner is the only one I would support. I’m an Independent on Priebus, Steele, Cino or Anuzis.

  5. I emailed the RNC a year before McCain won the nomination that I would discontinue my contributions if he was the nominee. I stuck to my word untill Palin got the nod as VP and broke down for fifty bucks. Win or lose, the time for a third party is fast approaching.

  6. No to “Cino the RINO.” In fact, not just no, HELL NO!

  7. The “People” have no say. This is decided amongst the RNC members. You just have to accept whomever they vote for.

    The beauty in all this though, is OUR VOTES for OUR CANDIDATES for Government Officials belong to We The People and even the RNC can’t decide that for us.

    My money will go to the Candidate of MY choice, not the RNC.

  8. Boehner supports Cino. That translates to her being a RINO. Boehner needs Teaparty candidate to challenge him in 2012.

    Priebus is just as responsible as Steele for the catastrophic debacle the RNC has become.

  9. The continued political tone-deafness of the RNC is both astounding and very disappointing. Another election cycle (or two) is perhaps needed until the requisite housecleaning is finally completed.

  10. Please, God, NOT another head whose attitude is “Beware thou, of the mutant” and will run in fear of anyone who is NOT a clone of the democrats.

    The current RNC “leadership” is truly made up of kdaptists. :(

    -

  11. Same cast of character that gave us Steele.

    85 threadbare time-servers deciding which threadbare time-server should lead them. Them, not us.

    The RNC is senescent and irrelevant. Work around them from now on.

  12. If Steele looses how long before he mentions race?

  13. A chairman named Prince Riebus (or whatever). Oh boy.

  14. The majority of the 168 members of the RNC just showed their hand: a pack of reality detached delusional Beltway RINOs.

    My hard earned $ will go direct to conservative candidates. The RNC can go to hell.

    Coup de etat in order…….

  15. We don’t need a third party, that is the sure path to socialism given that we don’t have run-off elections.

    This is no crisis- If a RINO wins, the Tea Party stays strong and 2010 carries into 2012 and we can see if the survivors are any smarter. The big question in my mind is who elects the electors, and how to we replace them?

  16. Who are these people that are voting? It seems they’re disconnected to reality.

  17. Precinct committee members in each county choose Republican primary candidates.

    Get information on how to become a precinct committee member yourself, from any precinct project group. Here are a couple:

    http://theprecinctproject.wordpress.com/
    http://www.rlc.org/precinct-project/

  18. The RINO infiltration continues!

  19. Last year i stopped donating to the RNC,,, I guess this year will be no different.

  20. What’s the RNC? Do they stay at the Ritz Carlton, have nice dinners and have masseuses sent up to the room like the DNC?

  21. It look like Michael Steele lost. And other candidates are RINO’S.

  22. Bye, bye RNC. You shall get no dime of mine.

    Come on people, lets get this Tea Party going, forget the RNC. The time is now!

  23. Didn’t Riebus recently saying something regarding violence against Obama. Given the current climate is the GOP really going to go there?

  24. So much for Wagner’s momentum

  25. Steele is a commie

  26. Steele tried to take credit for the November results.
    Un F-ing beleivalble. Shall I say typical RINO/affirmative action behavior? Link??

    I give nothing to the RNC anymore, I give directly to candidates.
    That is why the RNC is 27 million in the red. Keep it up folks and we will kill the RINO from the head first.

  27. I think Michael Steele is dropping out?

  28. And it’s Prince Riebus in the stretch!

  29. They all live in a bubble I guess. Time to make that precinct committee commitment a priority.

  30. Steele out endorses Cino

  31. I truly feel Cino and Priebus are trying to infiltrate and will undermine the R party. Didn’t
    Cino lobby for healthcare Hello!! Conservative candidates hear we come no $$$ to RNC.

  32. So their fate is sealed when it comes to my money. No more donations to the RNC. Come election time, I will make my list and donate to the specific candidate. If the RNC thinks they are in debt now, just wait until January, 2012.

  33. Not Cino! She is a lobby for Obamacare.

  34. Doesn’t it sound like a neat idea to elect ourselves a Tea Party chairman? Yeah, they would be anathema to the RNC and would have no “official” place in DC. However, the new chairperson’s existence would be quite the thorn in the side of both parties.

    As for the argument about just giving to the candidate of your choice, I can see a TPM Chairman helpful in providing reinforcements in situations like Renee Ellmers in NC when Etheredge challenged her and the RNC wouldn’t give her any $$. Also, with a single, designated chair, localities that are “difficult” about putting other parties on the ballot would have someone in their corner with a lot of $$ and clout behind them.

    Just a thought.

  35. Perfect ending for RINO Steele to endorse lobbyist for Obamacare. Does Steele still have some walking around money to hit the strip clubs and fancy restaurants?

  36. My money will go to who I choose if they DO NOT select Ann Wagner! Each time they send me their “junk mail” I will send it back like I did before in their paid envelope that says “Hell No not a dam dime from me…go to HELL” The republican party is still being infeltrated by the communist!

  37. RNC: The 168 of you are in OUR crosshairs, rhetorically speaking. The RNC is broke now, just wait……..

  38. Actually, I think the RNC did give money Elmers, its was the RCC that at first turned her down for $$.

    Preibus appears to be close to wrapping it up. And Ann Wagner is falling to pieces so much for her being the consensus choice. I would assume that Wagner drops out before next vote.

  39. It’s time now for a third Party. A conservative Party.

    Let Scarboro(sp?) et al have their elitist Blue Blood Party back. The Tea Party needs to take the reigns.

  40. National Tea Party, here I come! I refuse to accept a pro-abort as RNC head.

  41. Remember folks, we now have Rand Paul, Tim Scott, Allen West and Marco Rubio, and we did all without the help of the RNC.

  42. Yes…let’s start a Tea Party and send our money to them to help get American loving people elected! National Tea Party Committee! Bravo!

    Jim… we elected you Chairman! :) :) :)

  43. Oh, and I forgot Bill Flores, who tromped the fake Blue Dog, Chet Edwards.

  44. New vote and no one dropped out

  45. Steele….worthless to the very end. Unbelievable.

    The narrative is already written if Priebus wins: “RNC Chair Calls For Obama’s Execution”

    Just f’n perfect.

    -c

  46. Wow, a RINO in Cino or a jackwagon in Priebus.

  47. Priebus pulls to 80 and Saul pulls ahead of Cino and Wagner falls way behind.

  48. Wow, Preibus gains 13 votes in one round with no drop outs. Saul picked up five.

  49. Disappointed that Wagner is not doing too well. She is a true conservative. Who is Preibus?
    Maybe Saul can beat Preibus.

  50. Wagner out – endorses no on

  51. Looks bad for Romney, good for Daniels. Newt may as well choose sides and pull down the bunting.

  52. How in the world does this Process work and make any sense?

    Its like a outer body experience here? Did these GOP Idiots pay attn. to the last two years?

    Guess I will stay a indy until there is an official CONSERVATIVE PARTY….

    This makes me think that 2012 can be had by the MESSIAH once again?

  53. If Preibus wins, I’m not giving any money to the RNC. I think the delegates will learn how badly this choice has been when fundraising numbers do not increase and Preibus ends up being like Steele, a walking gaffe prone, big spending disaster.

  54. Obama has bribed the voters to go RINO. The same will happen in our primary selections. A pack of 5-6 choices , people in there just to split the conservative vote , and another Bob Dole paid to take a dive nomination who will be a good loser for Obama’s second term. Pick yout tea party people EARLY and prepare well. The Rinos are going to be far more ruthless in their war against conservatives.

  55. Who is this Preibus??

    Guess we’ll have to elect him, to see what’s in him.

    Good grief, politics today.

    Although I do agree with Rose’ comments (which are our Founders’ “comments”, quoted) on the thread that Jim has linked to regarding Obama’s execution.

    What is “the full extent of the law” for treason, sedition, and a multi-trillion dollar theft from the treasury by Presidental Fiat? A slap on the wrist and a few multi-million dollar book deals?

  56. Just when you thought it was safe to go back in the water (or Repub party)….what is wrong with these people? They dislodge an Afro-American ( which won’t go over well) and pick another RINO. Were any of these people (including Boehner) listening in November????

  57. If Preibus is a RINO, can someone tell me how?

    I honestly don’t know squat about the guy, except that he mentioned that Obama might face Capital punishment from the proper reading of the law some day.

    That’s not enough to convince me that he’s a RINO….quite the opposite, in fact.

  58. Having heard Saul in MI, I don’t see why he doesn’t have more support. Maybe it is the
    RINO- ization.
    I don’t think there are enough Rino’s to make them viable.

  59. I wish Saul or wagner had cut a deal after round three, they might have been able to jump forward. Too late now.

  60. Preibus is the man with 97 votes, Saul finishes 2nd.

    Headlines in NY Times tomorrow and likely TV tonight, RNC picks Chair who calls for execution of Obama.

  61. The only purpose of the republican party post Reagan is to co opt the opposition to communism and negotiate terms for our surrender.

  62. This guy makes the current DNC chair look good. I mean physical aspects, he’s kinda creepy.

  63. 97 idoit RINOs vote in some squish attorney. Hey RNC there was an election a couple of months ago. Remember? Apparently not.

    Shove it….

  64. I would be willing to put money on it: Steele will shortly appear on MSM, in an exclusive interview, and play the race card.

    He’ll say something like: “It appears that Republicans are not comfortable with having persons of color in positions of authority.”

    We’ve seen this sorry act over and over.

  65. Time to abandon the RNC and shove it off a cliff.

  66. Priebus has been near-genius here in Wisconsin. We’ve completely and totally flipped from all-blue to all-red. Governor, State Assembly, State Senate, US Senator. Anybody remember the untouchable Russ Feingold? Ha.
    via Ace of Spades

  67. I will continue to donate to individual candidates and throw away all solicitations from the RNC!!!

  68. Perhaps I need to be set straight here. When I looked at the “execute Obama” link, it seems to me that Piebus is speaking of Ron Johnson’s feelings about Obama. Am I wrong here?

  69. Reince and Spit.

  70. That’s it, not another damn cent from me, not that I will be able to afford to anyhow soon. We need to let the RNC know that they are going to now wither on the vine from a lack of contributions.

  71. Hey Communist delegates shove your man up your back door!

  72. We’ll I’m disgusted. Now he going to turn the GOP into Dem-Lite, haven’t we seen this before?

  73. No donations from me!!

  74. As a person who lives in Wisconsin, I think that Reince Preibus will do a good job as RNC chair. He was an important part of Wisconsin’s flip from blue to red in the 2010 election. I ask that you please give the guy a chance.

  75. Who are these people that are doing the voting? How are they selected? We need to find out the source of who’s pushing these RINO’s.

  76. #66,

    I have a feeling you’re correct. Steele will become the new Colin Powell, aka “Mr. Modert” and the Alinsky media will eat it up.

  77. Mad Hatter, Jetstream posted this #17 when I asked for it earlier:

    Precinct committee members in each county choose Republican primary candidates.

    Get information on how to become a precinct committee member yourself, from any precinct project group. Here are a couple:

    http://theprecinctproject.wordpress.com/
    http://www.rlc.org/precinct-project/

  78. This voting makes me wonder if any of these people voting actually listened to the debate this group had.

  79. Sarah Palin is my de facto party chairperson and all my money goes to SarahPAC or individual candidates. I’ve had it with these Rino morons.

  80. I want to see Reince’s birth certificate because I’m a real American!!

  81. I think RP will do fine. He did great in WI. Why start eating our own two seconds out of the gate?

  82. Thank you Paul, very informative stuff.

  83. So nobody can answer my initial question, apparantly.

    “How is Preibus a RINO?”

    What evidence do we have that he takes the Dem position on issues?

    All I know, honestly, is what I’ve seen here recently. That he thought that it might be possible that Obama could be possibly brought up on charges and eventually face capital punishment for his treasons, should the laws of this nation ever be enforced.

    Is that it?

    Or has Preibus said and done things that make one believe that he is a Democrat calling himself a Republican?

    Clue me in, someone.

  84. ‘Cause almost everyone here’s calling him a RINO, which means something specific, as words tend to do….but nobody’s coming up with reasons.

  85. Reasons….? The Republican Party is not a party of reason.

    For the 76, 656542 time.

  86. gb

    Gateway Pundit ain’t the Republican Party. So I ask for reasons. Usually GP folks tend to back up their suppositions with links and evidence. This is, apparantly, an exception.

    You got your commas wrong in that made-up number of yours. They go every three digits, from the right, normally. Just so you know. But you’re a troll, so…nevermind.

  87. Is the supposition wrong that, perhaps, when and if America ever enforces its laws, that a treasonous, seditionist thief of trillions of dollars might possibly be brought up on charges which could possibly lead to capital punishment?

    If not, is it wrong and RINOish to mention that in public? RINOs are “Republicans who show that they have the cojones to state the truth (however unlikely)” now?

  88. #91

    Thank you.

    I wasn’t denying that he could be a RINO. Just wanted some backup with facts.

    Took long enough.

  89. From TxBitty’s link: all I wanted to know:

    “Big Government has already pointed out Priebus’ relationship to stimulus dollar solicitations here. Priebus certainly talks the right talk in these Tea Party times. Unfortunately, from his fondness for liberal catch-phrases, work with the NAACP, appreciation for the use of eminent domain to take land from a small business–land it needed to survive–and profiting from Stimulus funds, it’s extremely hard, if not impossible to document that there’s a principled conservative somewhere underneath the facade.”

  90. Now he’s the RNC chair. Wonderful! Just wonderful. /s/

  91. Feh. Much ado about nothing.

    We won last year in spite of the RNC.

    Give directly to the candidates. Every. Time.

  92. I think this is a big mistake. Michael Steele had the Democrats all wee wee’d up. He reached out & excited more people vote in the USA this past election cycle than the Republicans have in the past 10 years. Does the RNC know that they just POed all of those voters? HE WAS EFFECTIVE! Why did they want to end the momentum from the November elections. Who is running the show over there? They just lost all of their small donors. But, I guess the “big donors” are very pleased.

  93. The Big Government column only shows that Reince worked for a Law Firm. All kinds of people work for all kinds of businesses that have various ties. Anybody here work for a company with ties to GE? Any with government contracts? Then, by your logic, YOU must be a RINO.

    Priebus is the architect of the Wisconsin Conservative landslide. He is well respected by Wisconsin TEA Party activists. I guess you don’t have to believe me.

  94. Who cares who won what?

    The top members of the Republican Party are just as arrogant elite bastards as their brothers and sisters, the Democrap.

    REAL change should come from the bottom -from the people- not from the top.

    The ESTABLISHMENT, i.e THE RULING CLASS has to go if we want to save the Republic.

  95. the RNC is an organization run by elite politicans for the benefit of elite politicans. as long as nobody donates money to them they will little or no influence. donate directly to canidates.

  96. EVIL party and the STUPID party –
    guess which on the Republican party is!!!
    C-CS

  97. This is how we change the political climate. Donate local, donate directly. If you donate to the RNC, not only have you wasted your hard-earned cash, you’ve contributed to the problem. I am not against the newly voted-in chairman or whatever, just the institution and their out-of-touch ideas.

    This goes triple for the moonbats, but why bother telling them? They’d only drool cross-eyed, crap their pants, and then blame Sarah Palin for upsetting their tummy. And then we’d have Chris Matthews on air peeing down his legs, Olbermann chewing his own face off, the NYtimes shredding paper and throwing it all over Times Square, and some idiot democratic congressperson would introduce a 5,000 page piece of legistlation demanding we clean up the mess.

  98. If Reince “Lets execute Obama” Priebus wins, the RNC is in big trouble.

    Good grief Jim, In your enthusiasm for Wagner you’ve channeled Krugman and Olberman and be-clowned yourself.

    Yes, Priebus did say Obama, but he obviously meant Osama ( bin laden). Are you trying to destroy your credibility Jim and doing what you can to ensure Obama is re-elected?
    This infighting among republicans is moronic.

  99. The RNC is dead. Republicans are over because they’re not really republicans.

  100. I agree Terry Gain.

  101. We are supposed to be better informed. Haven’t we taken the liberal press to task for misquoting and outright lies about conservatives? My choice was Saul Anuzis, but the duely elected committeemen voted for Preibus. Preibus is not a RINO. He did not support the Stimulus nor ObamaCare or any other policies of the left. Members of the large law firm he works for did in some cases, but Preibus did not.

    Get it right folks.
