As if we didn't know, the GOP is getting ready to blame the black guy.

The Huffington Post, which keeps an eye and an ear out for these things, reports that the GOP is looking for a scapegoat. If the Republicians don't do as well as they expect in the mid-term elections, the long knives are going to come out and some poor goat is going to be last week's news.

The Huffington Post -- "A number of GOP operatives are gearing up to blame RNC Chair Michael Steele, if the Republicans under-perform in this year's midterms. The RNC's recent anemic fundraising report is only aggravating the GOP's thirst for Steele blood."

Stop right there. Thirst for blood? Just what I suspected. There are a bunch of vampires in that camp. Zombies too -- those are mainly the followers. And smiling werewolves too, who will jump out at America, when ever they see a full moon, and those jokers carry around with them pictures of the full moon.

More gleaned from the Huffington Post -- The GOP scapegoat hunters are about ready now to jump Mr. Steele, (who INHO, is the best GOP RNC chair a progressive could ever hope for) . Ed Rollins, the GOP mainstay who ran Ronald Reagan's first presidential campaign is among the scapegoat hunters,. He said, 'The bottom line is the chairman of the party has two functions. First and foremost is to raise money and secondly is to drive a message. [Steele] hasn't done either."

Yeah, some old GOP dude blaming the black man.

This Rollins dude kept yapping. "'At the end of the day, " he said, " if we come up short in some of these races, Steele is going to get the blame... "

Why? Rollins and the scapegoat hunters should look at the GOPr candidates?  At the party's platform?

As for Mr. Steele? IMHO -- Mr. Michael Steele, RNC Chair for life, plus a hundred years.
