By SnifflesHere's more proof that the Republicans are living in a world completely divorced from reality: They think Michael Steele, the newly elected RNC Chair, is a star.
"Barack Obama's a phenomenon. It's going to take a phenomenon just to challenge him. Michael is the one guy we have, regardless of background, who can do that," said a California committeeman after Friday's vote.
We cats don't quite know what to make of that. But we have to assume that in the Official GOP Dictionary, the entry under "phenomenon" must read as follows.
PHENOMENON (Republican), (n.), def.: 1). Guy who has won one (1) electoral contest in his entire life, as the second-banana on a "reform" ticket to replace a corrupt governor of the other party; 2). Guy who has never won an electoral contest on his own, despite massive infusions of support from his party and party leaders; 3). Guy who made a fool of himself last September on "Real Time with Bill Maher" after the audience booed a mention of Sarah Palin and he looked at them angrily and said, "You'll be calling her 'Vice President Palin' soon enough!"; 4). Guy who was completely, totally wrong about that.
Yeah, right... that guy.
UPDATE: Goodness, how could we forget? Here's definition 5).: Guy who in 2006 said that the "R" next to his name was an "impediment" — a "hurdle to overcome" — a "scarlet letter."
