Republican National Committee Chairman Michael Steele refused to embrace Arizona's controversial immigration law Tuesday during an interview with Univision, the country's largest Spanish-language television network.
"The actions of one state's governor is not a reflection of an entire country, nor is it a reflection of an entire political party," he said, referring to Arizona Gov. Jan Brewer and her support for S.B. 1070.
"The governor and the people of Arizona made a decision that they thought was in their best interest, and that's the beauty of a republic, that's who we are."
Steele has faced criticism as RNC chairman because of his propensity for gaffes and difficulty managing the organization's finances and fundraising efforts.

I’ll be banned from FR if I state the truth about Steele and his cronies at the RNC.
Make a list of the top 50 vulgarities and that’s a start of what I think of these people.

Steele is just padding out his C.V. to get into the JUANnabie Hall of Fame.

Seems I also read last week that 2 months out from midterm elections the RNC has only a couple of million dollars in the bank. Thus, it won’t be any help to Republican candidates. Steele has frittered away tons of money on extravagances and alienated many of the traditional big donors. This guy is a disaster and has to go as soon as possible.
