RNC Chairman Steele Plans "Off the Hook" Hip Hop Outreach

Looks like NextGenGOP's prayers have been answered. New RNC Chairman Michael Steele is finally paying attention to young voters. By the time he's done, they're going to wish he hadn't:

Newly elected Republican National Committee Chairman Michael S. Steele plans an “off the hook” public relations offensive to attract younger voters, especially blacks and Hispanics, by applying the party's principles to “urban-suburban hip-hop settings.”

I guess this means we're going to see the return of "MC Rove?"

Michael Steele is right to reach out to young people, but doing it through this avenue seems fake and insincere. Hip-hop is an organic art form, something that eschews the establishment and a top-down approach.

I'm all ears if MC Rove comes out with a mix-tape, however.
