After the director of the Republican National Committee’s Young Eagles program was fired last weekfollowing the bondage club spending scandal, some suggested that the RNC was moving on. Apparently not.
The committee’s chief of staff, Ken McKay, resigned last nightand his departure apparently prompted senior adviser Curt Anderson to also call it quits. Now the focus turns back to chairman Michael Steele.
Steele maintains he’s not going anywhere, but the possibility of an exit is the talk of theblogs, theMSMand even some Republicansthis morning. And Steele’s actions in the wake of the scandal haven’t exactly bolstered his standing. Since the scandal broke, Steele hired Neil Alpertto handle RNC finances (Alpert was charged with campaign finance improprieties when he chaired two D.C. baseball associations) and commented on national televisionthat “he and President Obama have a slimmer margin of error because of their race,” a remark that drew a rebuke from the White House.
“„“Every minute spent on distractions is an unacceptable missed opportunity to do what you do best – taking back our country for the American people.”
