RNC Chief Of Staff Ken McKay Resigns

"The Republican National Committee's chief of staff resigned under pressure Monday, which Chairman Michael S. Steele described as an effort to reassure wavering donors in the wake of a controversy over its most recent expense accounting.

The resignation of Ken McKay, Steele's highest-ranking aide, is the most drastic in a series of attempts at damage control by the RNC after it was revealed March 29 that the committee had spent $1,900 to entertain young donors at a risqué West Hollywood nightclub. The staff member who authorized the expenditure was fired last week, and the RNC has implemented new spending accountability procedures."

Elections are all about money. If the RNC has identity problems and money problems leading up to the 2010 elections, why does everyone think they are going to do so well?

With three electoral defeats in a row, when will the Republicans start to see sucking up to a religious fringe, promoting an irresponsible economic agenda, denying widely accepted science, nominating know-nothings like Palin and Bachmann, pushing then mismanaging two wars, and making no effort to reform Health Care has consequences.
