Michael Steele a tool? Say it isn't so.

‘Shadow RNC’ chairman Ed Gillespie still owns the deed to the RNC.

Republican insiders and donors have, for months, tried to diminish Republican National Committee (RNC) Chairman Michael Steele to a mere figurehead. Afters a months of gaffes and other missteps, Republicans like Karl Rove and Ed Gillespie formulated a plan to establish what has been called a “shadow RNC” of Republican attack groups, policy centers, and state outreach organizations to work around the normal RNC. Facing mounting criticism and a drain of resources to the RNC, Steele has harshly rebuked his detractors, declaring again, “I ain’t going anywhere.” But according to property disclosures filed with the D.C. government, the RNC building is still registered to Gillespie, a former RNC chair. View a screenshot below:



While Steele remains the face of the RNC, he is quickly losing power. Not only does Gillespie command control of the “Shadow RNC,” he still technically owns the regular RNC.

2. What is this? I don't even...?

At this rate I don't think that the Republicans will organize well enough to win in November unless the voters are self-motivated enough.

3. It wouldn't suprise me a bit

If you take off Steele's mask, we would find out he's really a zombie.
