Pathetic.

He lost. Poor baby. Maybe there's an open slot at the DNC. What I'm waiting for is his conversion and the black press trumpeting how the RNC discriminated against an "African-American."

Will he seek political asylum as did Powell ?
Sheila| 1.20.11 @ 10:15AM
Yosemiti Sam - droll and spot on. Most of this right-liberal website's commenters won't get it.

I knew this cat was going to play the race card/discrimination card way back when he started saying he was going to make the RNC more "street friendly" and started all this hip hop bullshit. One needn't know anything about Steele other than the fact he tried to bring hip-hop culture to the RNC. That was the death throe for his tenure in the Chairmanship.

What race card? Was Caesar black?
I like the bit about putting extra resources in Wisconsin. But didn't the Republican win so it seems resources well spent.

In 73 there was a blaxploitation film called Black Caesar. Maybe Steele thinks hes Fred Williamson.

Would be best for all if he would just quietly fade off into the sunset ...

Lost in most uses of Julius Caesar metaphors was that Caesar was a dictator-for-life who was bucking for a crown. The assassins were the good guys. Look what happened after they lost the ensuing war.
Tiberius, Caligula, Nero -- and those are just the lowlights of the first century.
