Michael Steele is firing back at his RNC detractors, who are bringing forward a proposed rewrite of the RNC’s rules to effectively strip Steele of his control over the party’s finances.
The Washington Times reports that Steele has fired off an e-mail to the proposal’s five main sponsors. “No RNC chairman has ever had to deal with this,” Steele wrote, “and I certainly have no intention of putting up with it either.”
Steele also wrote: “It is of course not lost on me that each of you worked tirelessly down to the last minute in an effort to stop me from becoming chairman.”
