Steele draws challenger for GOP chairman
A prominent Michigan Republican said Friday he is running against Michael Steele, arguing the GOP can win in 2012 only if the party chairman steps out of the limelight and allows candidates to be the voice and face of the party.
Saul Anuzis, who lost his bid for Republican National Committee chairman two years ago, made his plans known in an e-mail.
"My agenda is very straightforward. I have no interest in running for office. I won't be writing a book. It is not my goal to be famous," said Anuzis, who promised to serve just one two-year term and work hard to elect Republicans "from the top to every township and city across this great country of ours."
His statement was a slap at Steele, who has generated controversy repeatedly in his tenure as party chairman, sometimes drawing attention that was detrimental to the Republican cause.
Replacing Steele is a good start. He has shown to be nothing more than the RHINO, country club republican that has cost the party so heavily in the past few years.
