Michael Steele Stars in RNC TV Ad

Well, this isn’t going to soothe the GOP’s internal critics of Michael Steele, who worry that his celebrity distracts him from the party’s message. He stars in a new 60-second ad — he’s onscreen for 30 second of it, and narrates the rest — telling viewers to visit a new RNC website. (Hat tip: Peter Hamby.)

This is all ahead of Steele visiting cities in Florida, Oklahoma and North Carolina; TPM reports that the DNC will run ads ripping the RNC “fear” presentation in those cities.
