RNC Chairman vs. Rush Limbaugh

Today it appears our buddy Michael Steele, chairman of the Republican National Committee has made it into the news!

He noted on CNN’s “D.L. Hughley Breaks the News” that he was the leader of the Republican party, not infamous radio host Rush Limbaugh. He also took the time to mention that Rush is an ‘entertainer,’ whose show is ‘incendiary’ and ‘ugly.’

Ouch.

Clearly a slip of the tongue, we’ll see how Rush Limbaugh responds! Rush, remember, is always looking for ways to get himself back in the news. News stories drive up his number of listeners – and that’s always a good thing!

The question is though: is Michael Steele really the head of the Republican Party? Of course, he’s the official head – but perhaps someone else is really in charge? In the time since President George W. Bush has stepped down, we’ve seen a scramble for power in the Republican party. Who came out ahead, if anyone? Is it Rush? Palin? Rick Perry? Someone in Congress?
