Republican National Committee Chairwoman Ronna McDaniel emailed an apology Monday evening to the GOP's 168 committee members, acknowledging she could have done a better job communicating a new initiative to recruit gay voters that upset some in the party's Christian evangelical base.
McDaniel's email was sent a few hours after she tried to quell a rebellion inside her ranks, holding a conference call with RNC members that delivered talking points supporting the new GOP Pride coalition but refusing to take questions. She blamed the risk that news media members may have dialed into the call for skipping a Q&A.

I think it's time to replace Ronna with a Go-Getter Republican! Ronna has become too comfortable and too intrenched in the D.C. way! We need someone like Judge Jeanine to put some life and energy into the RNC!

It is not poor communication. It is poor judgement and poor policy. Forget the GOP pride coalition. You are either a Republican or you are not. African American? No, you are either an American or not. No one person or group of people are special. We are in this together. Proverbs 11:2 When pride comes, then comes disgrace, but with the humble is wisdom. James 4:6 But he gives more grace. Therefore it says, “God opposes the proud, but gives grace to the humble.”

How blatantly naïve can she get? If I wanted to join a party whose focus was identity politics, I'd be a Democrat.

What a waste of energy and time. Stop it already. When we go to Republican meetings and events, we don't categorize everyone into Jewish, Catholic, straight, gay etc. We just get on with the business at hand. The GOP hq should do the same.

The one and ONLY "pride" the Republican Party should promote is "American Pride." The Democrats are the party of tribes. Republicans should be the party of a unified country, regardless of race, ethnic origin, sexual preference, etc. THAT is a winning strategy, both for the party and the nation.

Anyone who is making promises to some 'special little group' is lying through their teeth.

Soooo, what they're saying is they don't want Gay votes. Tony Perkins is a fool. Trump is TOTALLY pro-gay.

This is exactly why when the RNC called last night asking for money, I hung up.

#1. And just who is a “go getter” Republican?
I see a bunch of go getter Republicans on MSNBC. Scarborough. Michael Steele. Nicole Wallace. Or how about Trey Gowdy, Chris Christie, etc.? They are go getters. Look at the careers they made for themselves being media propagandists. Yep. We need to get us us another Michael Steele. A real Republican go getter. That’s the ticket!

Replace Ronna with Ric Grenell, a conservative who happens to be gay but doesn't lead with his joystick. He would recruit folks with a conservative worldview without regard to identity politics.

Fire the beast! We need those gay voters so they can... I don't know, elect more gay people to Congres so more government people can enjoy months of parental leave to care for their rented children. I demand they put somebody in charge like Buttigieg who better understands this critical need and might do something about it when his child turns twelve and he can devote more time to his job.

Reliable studies show that homosexual individuals are interested only their sexual proclivities and ignore other causes not associated with those activities.

One more reason that, after 50+ years of being a proud Republican, I am now an "independent conservative". The Republican Party is now the Republi-Can't Party.
I will never vote for a Demon-Rat, but I will no longer vote for a terrible RINO candidate just because he/she has an "R" after their name either. The lesser of two evils is still evil, and I refuse to vote for evil any more. Voting for evil gives us people like Cheney and Murkowski. Only good, conservative candidates will get my vote from now on!!! You know, conservatives that actually want to work to make this a better country, not pander to every freak show special-interest group!!!!!

Reason #2 why I will contribute no money to the RNC, RNCC, RNSC. Reason #1 is the RNSC's support of Lisa Murkowski.

The GOP should stop wasting their time trying to get this group or another. Have good policies, follow through with good work, and like minded people will join in.

Is homosexuality an issue with the Republican party? Evangelicals, if indeed they truly have an issue with this issue, need to keep their pie holes closed. Retrograde thinking of this sort undermines the conservative brand. Think what you like, but don't try to foist it upon the Party.

The Gang that Can't Shoot Straight steps in scheiss yet again. The GOP must be purged of these dufuses like Ronna Romney, or we have to go new party. There is no middle ground. I will not support this clown show.
