Michael Steele is like a black Rick Santorum...........except that he does a better job of hiding his true feelings than Santorum does.
Frankly it makes me sick that Russell Simmons or any other prominent figure in the black community would cut an ad for him. Would Russell Simmons endorse Rick Santorum?? Hell no!
If Rick Santorum was black, I bet he would have Simmons' endorsment. Granted, if Santorum was black...he would have a talking point to revert to everytime he screwed up, as Steele does now.
Just wait. Steele will stop this "Pro-hood Republican" skit and be a serious candidate for a couple of weeks. However, as soon as he gets smacked with a scandal of some nature or as soon as his poll numbers start to look grim...he will go right back to this kind of idiocy as if to say "Well, at least I'm black".
