Days after losing his bid for a second term as RNC Chairman, Michael Steele reflected on his time as leader on Monday night.
In a special Martin Luther King Day edition of MSNBC’s Hardball, Steele said, “What I tried to do [as chairman] was to broaden the landscape over which we could play, go into neighborhoods where we needed to be in, but hadn’t been in generations, and I think it made a difference.”
In another part of the segment, host Chris Matthews claimed he never saw a group of blacks together at Republican conventions and asked if blacks felt at home within the party. With a laugh Steele responded, “We could have used a few more brothers in the house, there’s no doubt about that.”
