Steele on GOP primary: 'I am open to that baby'
RNC chair Michael Steele says he is "open to that baby" when it comes to supporting primary challengers against the three GOP senators who voted in favor of the stimulus package.
"Oh, yes, I'm always open to everything, baby, absolutely"
Steele said yesterday on Fox News' 'Your World with Neil Cavuto'.
Republican Sens. Arlen Specter (Pa.) and Olympia Snowe and Susan Collins (Maine) all gave the thumbs up to the Obama stimulus plan, making conservatives vent their wrath on the blogs, television and talk radio. Specter is the only one of the three up for re-elect in 2010.
Steele said he is not going to fight the conservative wrath within each members states, proving that he really is the new sheriff in town.
"My retribution is the retribution of the voters in their states," Steele said. "They're going to have to go through a primary in which they're going to have to explain to those Republican voters in that primary their vote."
"My responsibility is to follow the lead of the state parties, to get their advice, what their intent is. Those senators are going to
have to account to those voters there. And we'll work with the state party and we'll follow their lead," he added.
"It's just like anything. When the state party says, 'We're going to endorse a candidate and support that candidate,' the RNC is behind them. When the state party says, 'We have a problem with that candidate,' so does the RNC."
