Dems Warned of Steele Appeal ...

According to today's Washington Post:

"An internal document prepared by a top Democratic strategist warns that a majority of African American voters in Maryland are open to supporting Republican Senate candidate Michael S. Steele and advises the party not to wait to 'knock Steele down."

Maryland is a tough state. Dems can win if they are able to tie Steele to Bush and the national GOP. Steele will have to avoid that fate, if he is to win in November.

...Meanwhile, Lynn Swann is not having as much luck attracting African-American voters in PA.

...And adding insult to injury, IA Gov. Tom Vilsack is dissing Lynn Swann. According to the Post-Gazette, Vilsack said of Swann: "He wasn't even qualified enough to get in the booth ... And as a lifelong Steelers fan, I can tell you that John Stallworth was a better receiver."

Hey, you can bash the man's politics. But how dare you go after his game!

And by the way ... as a lifelong political fan, I can tell you John Hoeven is a better Governor than Vilsack.
