Republican National Committee Chairman Michael Steele is in trouble with many in his party after speaking out against the war in Afghanistan. Some are even calling for him to be removed.
CBS News Senior White House Correspondent Bill Plante reports there's talk in GOP circles that Sarah Palin should replace him.

I’ll become unoffended now. ;)
Sarah is needed unfettered. RNC chair would be a step down for her on the ladder to the presidency.
I think that this would be an awesome spot for Sarah. She might be able to pull the party back together on the right side of the aisle.
Sarah will never be President, but has the opportunity to get the process of electing the next Republican President in order. She should grab on and run with this job.
Meanwhile, Gov. Palin would be putting herself into a straitjacket in terms of what she could or could not say, and who or what policies to endorse, oppose, or ignore if she took this job. It would also put her in the position of needing to appear neutral towards all of the potential candidates for the 2012 nomination. And if she were to step down to run herself she'd be accused of having "fixed" the process in advance.
OF COURSE the party establishment want her to take the job. She shows them to be the fools they are and they want her out of the game entirely. I'd be shocked and disappointed if she fell into such an obvious trap.
Really? You saw that in your crystal ball did you? Sarah will never be president? Ohhh, boy.
Steve Schmidthead? Some other Romneybot?
LOL. ((((( ReneeLynn )))))
Hey! You’re here! You have a computer!!!! ?????
Yep. Exactly so.
You said it, brother!
I agree. A fundraising machine. Also she would drive the lefties wacko.
No, I’m just checking in with my step-son’s PC. He’ll be heading back soon.
I would love to see Sarah as the Chair of the RNC. I feel she is very qualified to run for POTUS in 2012, but being the chair will add more to her credibility to all the wacko doubters out there, as they will see that she is actively involved in the political scene, improving the party, as opposed to just giving speeches.
ON THE OTHER HAND....I doubt she will do it, as she is making a significant mark as a Fox contributor, and I doubt that Fox will let her stay on if she is the RNC chair, due to accusations of bias and stuff.
I hope to see Palin 2012. If not her, then Newt/Jindal 2012, and Palin in the Cabinet. I would also love to see Liz Cheney as SOS....she would rock the establishment and restore respect for the US in the world.
Did you see where dear fatima offered to send you a laptop?
Nice move. I’d love to have her help picking candidates to support. And she hasn’t done badly in that regard. Ths would be a good step for her.
OMG, yes! Dump Steele and replace him with Sarah!
She has a long life ahead of her.
And IMO she needs to get out of her comfort zone.
Sarah Palin has other plans.
Plus, Sarah’s already been busy rebuilding the GOP, HER WAY!
The RNC will have to contine with Steele or find their own replacement.
MSM can shove their suggestions for Sarah right up their Obamasses.
