Mike Huckabee has some high praise for Michael Steele — though it’s not the most graceful acclaim ever given.

“I’m not sure anyone else could be as effective in challenging the Obama policies any more so than Michael,” said Huckabee. The reason: “Well, I believe that that no one is gonna be able to use the racism charge.”

Fun fact: Steele said last week Obama won with the help of the media — who didn’t vet him because he’s black.
