Republican National Committee chairman Michael Steele appeared on Fox this afternoon to talk about the RNC’s newly relaunched web site, which has taken heat today and been down intermittently, presumably from a bump in traffic.

“It’s not even really a web site,” Steele said. “It’s a new platform for us.”

To those that have been mocking the site by saying just that, he said it’s “a beta site.”

“So we’re working out a lot of the kinks and the bugs. So the Democrats can have some fun,” he said.

Steele reminded the host, Shep Smith, that when he ran for chairman he promised to “take this party to the streets.”

“We’ve done that, I think, in a very creative way,” he said, adding that the site is “a new tool to communicate the new GOP.”
