In new book, Michael Steele says the GOP should acknowledge where "we most glaringly compromised our principles" in the past decade and hold its elected officials accountable.
WASHINGTON -- Republican Party Chairman Michael Steele offers a simple explanation for why the GOP may have lost touch with some Americans since the Ronald Reagan era: "We screwed up," he claims in a new book offering a blueprint for the party's resurgence.
That "we" includes the last two Republican presidents and the most recent Republican candidate for president.
In "Right Now: A 12-Step Program for Defeating the Obama Agenda," released Monday by Regnery Publishing, Steele says the GOP should acknowledge where "we most glaringly compromised our principles" in the past decade and hold its elected officials accountable.
"We must support Republican officials who assert these principles," he writes. "When elected Republicans vote against Republican principles, the voters must withhold their support -- withhold it vigorously and consistently."

Indeed. We must hold the Republicans' feet to the fire...to stand and vote for the principles they claim to support.
For example, why did the size & spending of government (and national dept) explode under George W Bush with a Republican-controlled Congress? And why was Bush proposing amnesty for illegal aliens?
If the Republicans are merely puppets of the corporations/elite and won't represent their constituents, we must dump them in favor of a third party.
