The new chairman of the GOP really knows how connect with the youth of America:
Newly elected Republican National Committee Chairman Michael S. Steele plans an “off the hook” public relations offensive to attract younger voters, especially blacks and Hispanics, by applying the party’s principles to “urban-suburban hip-hop settings.”
This is ridiculous. I’m a 50-year-old white guy from Orange County, but even I’ve seen the nationally televised ad that makes clear just how antique that phrase is. What’s next? A GOP initiative to attract all the hep cats from North Beach?
