Rethuglican National Committee chairman Michael "Tin Man" Steele has had a bad week.* First, after personally campaigning for Tedesco in the NY 20th district House race, and pouring in party funds, his guy lost to Democrat Scott Murphy. Then yesterday, the Rethugs lost 29-year Senate veteran Arlen Specter to the Democrats. Tin Man, looking more and more like a dead man walking, lashed out at Specter, saying that he "flipped the bird" to the Rethugs by switching, indicating that it was good thing because of Specter's "left wing" views (a remark that's not supported by Specter's voting record, but what are mere facts to delusional Rethugs?).
What we want to know is where is Tin Man's "off the hook" campaign to carry the Rethugs' winning message the "urban-suburban hip-hop settings"? After all, everyone could use a good laugh right now.

* UPDATE: Looks like the bad week's not over yet; RNC members are petitioning to restrict Tin Man's control over Rethuglican finances. Must be part of Steele's clever strategy.
