So the rumor around here is that Michael Steele, our lame duck Lt. Gov. and the man who ran against Senator-Elect Ben Cardin, may be tapped to run as the new leader of the RNC. I've mentioned here before that I think Steele has a strong future as a vote-getter and campaigner for the Republican party, and I think he would be a very smart choice - can't get much better than a charming African-American as a Republican mouthpiece, I don't think. But watch out if he DOES get the job - this is the kind of deceptive politics he likes to practice, trying to pass himself off as a Democrat in highly Democratic districts. (God, the irony, yeah?) And I did mention all the trouble his campaign people made for us in our polling place, didn't I? It all makes me anxious.

I dunno, it's harder for Steele to hide the fact that he's black than it is for Ken Mehlman to disguise the fact that he's gay... *is cynical that Republican party wants diversity*

We had our own nasty mudslinging here in VA but those Steele ads really annoyed me. That whole race annoyed me! Especially when I couldn't even vote in it.
