Michael Steele: the GOP Billy Mays

David Frum, a few days ago:

Republicans originally thought that Fox worked for us, and now we are discovering we work for Fox.

Official RNC email newsletter, today:

I wanted to let you know that I just finished reading Sean Hannity’s new book, Conservative Victory: Defeating Obama’s Radical Agenda. As they so often do, Sean’s words left me energized for November and even more committed to making the gains necessary to bring the Obama agenda to a halt.

In the book, Sean does more than just tell us why we need to defeat the Obama Agenda. He also gives us a blueprint for getting it done. I cannot recommend it enough — and I’m confident that, like me, you will be ready for the upcoming elections with a renewed commitment.

Sincerely,
Michael Steele

Political Animal spells it out:

Isn’t this a little odd? The RNC is using its list to urge Republicans to buy a book from an independent media personality? I’ve seen appeals that tell donors if they pony up a few bucks, they can get a book as a premium, but that’s not what this is. The RNC simply wants Republicans to go buy a Fox News host’s book.
