More substantively, he derided much of the Obama administration's moves so far, saying, "The Democrats have set in motion a plan to consolidate control over health care decisions, welfare programs that we've fought for generations, and now are putting in the hands of government to determine the winners and losers of our marketplace. This is not stimulating." Now, all Steele and his party can deliver is a plausible alternative...
