Tom Roeser is reporting that Steele is withdrawing his endorsement of Kirk in the Republican Primary. Now, given the loopiness of Michael Steele, it’s hard to say if this means much, but I still contend, Mark Kirk may have a serious primary to face. I definitely think he is a favorite for a primary, but the right wing base hates him and a conservative challenger has a very good shot at knocking him off. I’m not sure that will be Hughes, but if you are a conservative Republican in Illinois seeing opportunity right now, that race is ripe for a serious challenger. And if not, Hughes may turn into a serious candidate.
Is Steele being coached by a Miss America contestant?
