Ken Mehlman: Gone.

Report: GOP offers RNC chairmanship to Michael Steele

Last night, Republican officials told The Times that Mr. Steele, who lost his bid for the U.S. Senate on Tuesday, has been sought out to succeed Mr. Mehlman as national party chairman. Those Republican officials said Mr. Steele had not made a decision whether to take the post, as of last night.
Other Republican Party officials said some Republican National Committee (RNC) members, including state party chairmen, have mounted a move to have Mr. Steele succeed Mr. Mehlman. But they said that President Bush’s political adviser Karl Rove, who is Mr. Mehlman’s mentor, would rather see Mr. Steele serve in the president’s Cabinet, perhaps as secretary of Housing and Urban Development. These officials said no one has actually offered Mr. Steele either the RNC post or a Cabinet post.
 
What a horrible thing to say!
What's so wrong with having a Conservative leading the Republican party??

[edit] You know, there was one guy in the party who had the guts to speak out against the hijacking that brought the party where it is today. He stuck to his guns and warned everybody within earshot about what would happen. I would think he'd be the guy to pick up the pieces. [/edit]
