Wait, yes I can imagine that.
1. Running an ad in which he says "you are going to hear that I'm a bad person, maybe even that I hurt puppies. Actually, I love puppies" (holding a puppy.)
2. Busing homeless people from Philadelphia in to distribute literature in black neighborhoods in Prince George's County
3. Seeing to it that that literature listed Steele and Bob Ehrlich (running for re-election as Governor) as Democrats
4. Seeing to it that that literature also claimed that Steele had received the endorsement of former NAACP chair Kweisi Mfume, who had lost a contentious primary to Cardin a few months earlier.
Yep. Strong Candidate. Strong Republican. Michael Steele.
Such BS.
Michael is an embarrassment to his profession and a disgrace to his people. If he really believes Republicans like him as a leader, he is sadly mistaken.
Do he really think he would be the “head of the RNC” had McCain won the election? All Steele does is what he is told. He was told to apologize to hate-monger Rush Limbaugh and he did, even though he is in politics and Rush is nothing more than a loud-mouth Radio Personality. A man of principle and power does not apologize to an idiot who is beneath him. Since being selected to the RNC post he has done everything to impress his master, while at the same time offend the very people he claim he wants to woo into the Party, black people.
And how does this nut want to woo blacks into a historically exclusive white power structure? Black lingo, Hip Hop, fried chicken and potato salad.
This sell-out does not have enough sense to know that the Republican Party will not respect nor accept stereotypical black images into their Party?
This fool does not know he is offending the very people he want to attract and he is doing it to please white bigots who will not support or defend him when he fail to do deliver on his mission.
