Sarah Palin: Michael Steele 'doing a great job' Former Alaska GOP Gov. Sarah Palin said Wednesday night that she fully supports Michael Steele, despite his rocky tenure as chairman of the Republican National Committee. “I think he’s doing a great job,” Palin told Fox News’s Sean Hannity, more than a week after it was first reported that the RNC approved a nearly $2,000 expense to visit a bondage-themed nightclub in West Hollywood. “I'm glad he is the leader of the party,” she said. “I support Michael Steele.” Palin did not directly address the nightclub expense and declared that the Republican Party “machine” is to blame for the criticism Steele has faced. “Michael Steele is an outsider. The machine, I think, is tough to penetrate,” said Palin, who also fancies herself an outsider. “I think it's been good to have an independent outsider trying to create some change in the Republican Party.” Palin has been a consistent defender of Steele since his election as RNC chairman. She is, however, mostly alone in her support. Numerous prominent Republicans and members of the committee have called out Steele over the committee’s spending, though former House Speaker Newt Gingrich said this week that focusing on Steele is “foolish.”
