BREAKING: Michael Steele wins RNC Chairmanship

By GottaLaff

(H/t: Joeyess for reminding me that Steele campaigned as a Democrat)
And this:

Maryland Lt. Gov. Michael S. Steele profusely apologized yesterday for comments linking stem cell research to Nazi experimentation

UPDATE:

It’s unclear, however, how much influence Steele will actually have in influencing Republican lawmakers who are proud to be Rush Limbaugh’s ditto heads. Last month, former Massachusetts governor Mitt Romney told CNN that “the most powerful voices of the party are going to be elected officials in the Senate, in the House, and in governors’ offices.” Those powerful voices are still embracing the hate radio host — who has called Obama a “little black man-child” — as a spokesman for their movement.

If Steele — who once called Bush his “homeboy” — is serious about reaching out to people of color, will he condemn Limbaugh? Or will he join the ranks of his fellow ditto heads?

In 2006, Limbaugh said he had a high level of "respect" for Steele.

In 2006, Robert Novak wrote that Steele could be a "black Rush Limbaugh."

MSNBC is just breaking the news of Steele's victory.

Correction-- Tameron Hall: "The first African American to lead the party." Sound familiar? He is known as a moderate, and not a current RNC member, per MSNBC.

Michael Steele says the Republican party is going to "bring them something different."

Is that like change?

He says, "For those who wish to obstruct, get ready to get knocked over."

How ironic.

"Get ready, baby, it's time to turn it on. And work to do what we always do well, and that is win."

Seems to me, they haven't done that well in years.

"This is about empowering you." Channeling Obama... again.
