I have a candidate republicans can rally round. He plays a sport that the country club set loves. He is well spoken and impeccable educational credentials. He probably has moderate conservative outlook like colin powell, arlen spector.
He is a household name. Tiger Woods.

By the way i always said that Tiger was the prereq for obama. Tiger doesnt have what some perceive as the angry black wife. Both he and obama come from mixed marriages but Tiger's family stayed intact. His father being african-american not Kenyan and living in CA not Hawaii sort of made the born again black thing unnecessary in his life.
i am just having fun with this.

".......how do you think the world will view it?"

Under the circumstances, I think the fact that Rush called on him to step down will carry greater weight.

"I didn't say it was racist but rather it will be viewed as racist."

The (R)'s may lose the handful of blacks Steele brought in, but they'll win back all the skinhead southern racists Steele drove OUT. Net gain for them in sacking Steele.

As far as the (D)'s and (I)'s are concerned, it will just validate that Steele was always just a token Tom.
