Gingrich: Leave Steele alone!

“I think it’s foolish to focus on Michael Steele as a person,” Gingrich said Tuesday on NBC’s Today Show. “I think what we ought to do is focus on Democrats. We have a real chance to elect [House Minority Leader] John Boehner as speaker and to elect [Senate Minority Leader] Mitch McConnell as majority leader.”…

“I think Michael Steele is capable of taking us through the midterm elections,” he said. “My advice would be to appoint a respected outside authority to review everything.” The fact is they have fired the young person who made the big mistake that has gotten all the noise. The fact is Michael Steele has raised a lot of money, campaigned very aggressively, helped win in Virginia, New Jersey, and Massachusetts.”
