| MD: Good news for Michael Steele |
|---|
| African-American GOP candidate Michael Steele is running for the Senate seat of retiring Senator Paul Sarbanes in the deep blue
state of Maryland. So far, most polls have indicated that he is not cracking the Democratic stranglehold on the black vote. Recent
developments may portend a coming change in that, however. Hip-hop mogul Russell Simmons and radio network executive Cathy Hughes
have endorsed Mr. Steele (free registration required).
Beyond just an endorsement, these two influential African-Americans are actively working to help Steele win the seat. Mr. Simmons is holding a
fundraiser for him tonight and Ms. Hughes will be there.
In the end, Steele must be considered a long shot in this race still, but with
endorsements like this, perhaps we're seeing a legitimization of Republican African-American candidates that bodes well for the GOP's chances to gain a
larger share of the black vote in future elections. And who knows? Maybe this news will give Steele the extra percentage points he needs
to pull off an upset.
