In an interview last night with Sean Hannity, RNC Chairman Michael Steele expressed doubts that Republicans can take back a majority in the House of Representatives this year — and if they do, that they’re ready to lead.
Asked by Hannity for predictions in the 2010 elections, Steele said the GOP will have “nice pickups in the House.”
Enough to take the majority? “Not this year,” Steele said.
“The question we need to ask ourselves is, if we do that, are we ready?” he went on. “I don’t know.”
Steele has been giving interviews to promote his new book, “Right Now: A 12-Step Program For Defeating The Obama Agenda.”
He also said the party has to be wary of candidates who go to Washington and “start drinking that Potomac River water, and they’ll get drunk with power.”
