RNC Chairman Michael Steele To make a Speech Tomorrow

In a preplanned announcement set for tomorrow, RNC chairman Michael Steele will issue a rallying cry to his embattled party in a speech. He plans to tell GOP state leaders that they have to support conservative principles. He appears to be a day late and a dollar short, as the Republican party lags far behind with support of the American people. It definitely will be interesting to hear, as the last time he made a major speech to support his party was nothing short of a disaster and it appeared at the time that he pushed his cause even further back. He now faces a difficult task of keeping the Republican party united as different political factions now maneuver to try and influence what political direction the GOP should head.


He has a tough headwind to face here, as some key republican figures have already deserted the party, such as Pennsylvania Senator Arlen Specter who changed sides and became a Democrat, as he recognized that his own political views were no longer in line with the Republican party. He also knew that he would have a tough fight to gain re-election as a Republican. The facts are that other key Republicans may follow if people like the Republican chairman Michael Steele cannot convince his party to unite, and fight for their common cause.

The Republican party to date has never been so much in shambles, and it is hard to decide now if anyone could ever bring the party back to a respectable level to compete with the Democratic party. It may become extinct if the Republican principles are not grasped by the conservative movement once again.
