What party does Michael Steele belong to? His newest campaign sign features the word "Steele" over the word "Democrat." Anyone seeing the sign in a window would probably conclude that Steele is a Dem. But they would be wrong — he's the Republican nominee for U.S. Senate. So what gives? His campaign told the Baltimore Sun that the sign is meant to identify the person holding or displaying it — that is, a Dem who supports Steele. The campaign insists it's not meant to mislead people about Steele himself. But Dems aren't buying it. Says DSCC spokesman Phil Singer: "Michael Steele is trying to hide the fact that his campaign is funded and directed by George Bush and the Republican party." Judge for yourself.
