Michael Steele becomes first black RNC chairman
WASHINGTON – The Republican Party chose the first black national chairman in its history Friday, just shy of three months after the nation elected a Democrat as the first African-American president. The choice marked no less than "the dawn of a new party," declared the new GOP chairman, former Maryland Lt. Gov. Michael Steele. Republicans chose Steele over four other candidates, including former President George W. Bush's hand-picked GOP chief, who bowed out declaring, "Obviously the winds of change are blowing."

I think he is an excellent choice. He is articulate, moderate and intelligent. Plus as a man of color, he shows that the Republicans are just old white men.

Thanks for the edit, Jim.
You are right Steve, but unfortunately that is the impression of the Republican party.

So why is it we only let crooks run this joint?
Michael S. Steele, the newly elected chairman of the Republican National Committee, arranged for his 2006 Senate campaign to pay a defunct company run by his sister for services that were never performed, his finance chairman from that campaign has told federal prosecutors.
