Steele's blog no longer titled 'What Up?'
[cnn-photo-caption image= http://i2.cdn.turner.com/cnn/2009/images/10/14/art.gop.gi.jpg caption="The RNC has apparently changed the name of Michael Steele's blog."]WASHINGTON (CNN) - After an initial round of Internet mockery, the Republican National Committee has apparently decided to drop "What Up?" as the title of Michael Steele's blog on the newly revamped GOP.com.
One day after the rollout of the site, which crashed repeatedly throughout the day Wednesday and was ridiculed by Democrats and Republicans alike, Steele's blog is now called "Change the Game."
There's still only one post so far on the blog, a short entry that asks readers to answer the question, "Why are you a Republican?"

Steele is just another JOKE. WHERE ARE THE JOBS?
Steele sounds like he has been trying to gain "street cred." Just goes to show that they are nothing but a bunch of gangsters... deceitful scum who will sacrifice any values for their agenda.
And they claim to be the party that speaks for "god." Many Christians and Republicans are ignorant fools who do not have a clue how they appear to others with their blatant hypocrisy.
Oh, and I forgot to mention.
Question: Why – according to Republicans – is the American auto industry in trouble?
Answer: Because they are paying their workers too much!
"Why are you a Republican?"
Let me take a minute to think about that.
F.A.I.L.
He's a comedian and the idea of he being a GOP chairman is just a comedy at best.
Do we really need to comment. Michael Steele needs to hold firm to what he REALLY believes in. I am a democrat and feel that he has made valid points. He needs to stick to his beliefs (no matter how aligned to the democratic view on issues), and stop caving in. He has become a complete embarrassment. As a democrat, I don't mind, as an African American – this guy is a joke!!! Sorry to say, his demeanor is quite, dear I say, "Tommish." He is like a fish out of water, gasping for air.
They could have named it
'Right On'
What's the Deal???
Brothas & Sistas
You Down with RNC???
Republicans are Hip-Hop
Amazing. When the Republican had a double digit lead, CNN never mentioned the race in NJ. Now it's tied, and it's a story.
Yeah, what up wid dat, bro? Did RNC Chairman Limbaugh decide it was too "ghetto?"
Steele's question should've been "Why are you STILL a Republican?"
Republicanism is an act of faith for some who want to believe in a party that was once upon a time committed to conservative principles, but has been taken over by CINOs (Conservatives In Name Only) who during the reign of Bush ran up the biggest deficits in history, torn asunder our Constitution, gone to war on the basis of lies, and have ravaged our economy and our planet in the process.
Michael Steele is a joke. He is an embarassment to republicans and democrats alike. He needs to go crawl in a hole and never come out.
Lets talk about McDonnell having a 9 point lead in Virginia CNN. Of course they won't. That would help a Republican.
I can't wait to see how the RNC's response to the DOW nearing 10,000. It must be some sort of socialist plot! Or they will give W credit for solving Obama's "failed policies" or some other such nonsense.
A Republican trusts his representative in Congress.
A Democrat should want every issue voted upon.
The rest of us just want an end to class elitism, and to go back to work.
"What up?" is still bad English, no matter how colloquial.
good question
One ought to check out the hero's section of the GOP page. There is not one person on their list that is alive today, and people who would probably not be in the republican party as it is today. Such as Fredrick Douglas, etc...
Michael Steele, aka Mr. Token, please stop trying to be cool, and just be yourself. Liberals laugh at you when you try and portray yourself as "urban", and conservatives cringe. When you try to be something you are so obviously not, you're only going to set yourself up of ridicule.
Steele's blog is now called "What Up Yours" 😛
Who is Michael Steele?
If the only question is "are you a rep"........they must realy need members. sad, very sad.
Michael Steele is obviously a mole, a Democrat infiltrator! Stupendous undercover work-all the while he's destroying the GOP from within with almost daily public embarassments, here we all were, taken in, thinking he's just another Republican incompetent!
Subtle, those Commie pinko Osama-loving Dems.
All I can say is, Steele's an idiot! He spreads hate and lies and that seems to be the entire republican game plan instead of coming up with Real ideas and plans. So it's the same old story (new web site or not), when you don't have anything to offer, spread hate and lies. The American public have seen this before and have rejected it. The GOP is only preaching to their base, 20% of the American people.
Ya know, that's a sign of insanity, when you keep doing the same thing over and over again and expect a different outcome. Of course the GOP can't recognize that either, which is another sign. Good luck with that.
What up with dat, Steelio!
The RNC has to be beyond desparate to select Michael Steele as their leader. During the last election, when he was running for reelection, he and his cohort Erlichman (a freudian slip) Erlich brought homeless men from Philadelphia to Maryland and gave them flyers tohand out on election day. Funny thing, both Erlich and Steele were on the handout as democrats. They only fooled themselves since the real democratic candidate won the election.
As a former Young Republican, I also ask not only who is Republican, but WHY vote Republican? From "I'm not a crook" to "Read my Lips No New Taxes" to Smoking Guns and Mushroom Clouds, Republicans are LIARS. In 1980 I was proud to cast my first vote at 18 for Ronald Reagan. It took 20 years to learn that wasnt warm water "Trickling Down" upon me from above. Republicans hurt our People, our Families...our COUNTRY. Moral of the story? NEVER VOTE REPUBLICAN!
