Case in point:
Steele was asked Tuesday night during a speech to roughly 200 students at DePaul University why African-Americans should vote for GOP candidates.
“You really don’t have a reason, to be honest,” Steele responded, as was first reported by the Chicago Sun-Times. “We haven’t done a very good job of giving you one.”
Steele has made similar comments in the past, saying during an interview in November that some white Republicans are “scared” of him.
“I’ve been in the room and they’ve been scared of me,” said the first African-American chairman of the RNC at the time. “I’m like, ‘I’m on your side.’”

So why is Steele grossly incompetent? One of the reasons he was hired was to make sure African-Americans have a reason to vote for GOP candidates. What kind of an executive gives an answer like that? Does he think he's endearing himself to anyone by saying "Hey, you know what -- we SUCK! But I'm going to fix that one of these days!"
Perhaps, Mr. Steele, your sales skills suck. I'm surprised you didn't throw in a "Honest Injun!" this time. Your job is to sell donors and voters on the GOP, not to act as head consultant diagnosing what's wrong. Get out there and do your job or get out of the way so we can find someone else who can sell the GOP.

In the meantime, I think this dude is doing a way better job of selling the GOP to African-American voters than Mr. Steele.
