Michael Steele fancies himself as "streetwise"!! You really cannot make this up.

[yellowcanine]

Steele on himself to Stephanopoulous:

"I’m not a Washington insider. ... My view on politics is much more grass-roots-oriented. It’s not old boy network oriented and so I tend to come at it a little bit stronger, a little more streetwise if you will. That rubs some feathers the wrong way."

'e's a real 'omey, 'e is!

1. I think Michael Steele just fancies himself in general

That's why he keep running is big dumb mouth all the time -- loves to hear himself speak.

[Sabriel]

4. He's about as "street" as Arne Duncan

I think too much time in private schools will do that to you.

[Richardo]

2. He's about as street-wise as Ralph Wiggum

Exhibit A:



The People rest, your honor.

3. I speak jive...

[ClarkUSA]

5. I want him to run for president so bad... I am ready to buy DraftSteele.com now!

:rofl:

[Warpy]

6. He strikes me as a geeky kid who got through school

by being a bully's cheering section. Otherwise, he'd have spent the whole time being shoved into his locker and I doubt he'd be a Republican today.

I've always found it hilarious that the most confident people in the world are generally those with the least to back that confidence up.

8. Now I know who he reminds me of!

Skut Farkus' toady!

7. Oh, please - He was in the GLEE CLUB in high school -real "Street"...

spent years studying to become a catholic priest. Read the Wiki article on him here:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Michael_Steele

He was born on an Air Force base, had a conservative mom, did well in catholic school, studied for the priesthood, became a lawyer instead.He stated that the area of DC his family lived in "insulated him" from the harsh street life...Having it both ways, Mike?

And he WAS in the Glee Club....

12. Michael Steele - East Coast Blood.... yaayahhh!

13. "Do you know what I am saying?" -Butters Stotch, Southpark n/t

[Orsino]

14. "Rubs some feathers the wrong way"?

I'm sorry, Mike, but I can't hear you over the crash of your metaphors. And the trumpet blast of your ridiculousness.

[11 Bravo]

15. Fo' shizzle, Mikey! Get down wit' your bad self!

Barbara Billingsley (gratuitous "Airplane" reference) has more street cred than you do.

[grace0418]

16. People who have to tell you they are streetwise are anything but.

As with so many other attributes.

[SemiCharmedQuark]

17. Does anyone have that video where he claimed he grew up in the projects and Chuck D has to set him

straight?

18. One benefit from the RNC sex club scandal...

It appears the GOP has won over at least one prospective Senate candidate with the news the RNC spent nearly $2000 at a bondage themed club:
