Michael Steele speaks the truth: The Democrats’ power has gone to their heads

Fine on substance but a bit more stilted in delivery than I expected from a guy so media savvy, especially given the base’s passion on this subject. Steele’s used to going off the cuff in his role as telepundit; see, e.g., his RNC acceptance speech for how comfortable he is speaking extemporaneously. Maybe he should prep for these things that way — start with an outline of points and then do it impromptu in a few takes, stitching together the best parts of each. He needs to be on his game, as the media will be itching to compare him unfavorably to The One and these weekend message duels give them a perfect excuse. Also, can we give the man a set worthy of his station? Obama’s been using warm lighting and handsome wood-paneled offices as backdrops for his video communiques since the primaries. This looks like it was shot during a commercial break on “Hannity.”

And now the power hungry democrats and liberal biased media Washington Post has started some false rumors about Steele (just like they did about Palin when she was selected as McCain’s running mate). Federal investigators have begun looking into claims that Steele diverted campaign funds from his 2006 Senatorial run in Maryland to family members, but the Post has found at least some support for Steele as well. Michael Steele appeared on This Week with George Stephanopoulos to refute charges leveled yesterday by the Washington Post that he had misdirected campaign funds to his sister.
