GOP's Steele Coming to W.Va.

Republican National Committee Chairman Michael Steele will headline a May 22 fundraiser for West Virginia's GOP, the state party announced in a Monday release.

Steele's state counterpart, Doug McKinney, has touted how he supported the former Maryland lieutenant governor throughout his January bid to head the RNC.

But whether Steele remains chairman by the time of the scheduled May fundraiser is not completely certain, given reports on Politico, Political Wire and elsewhere.

Update: Political Wire relays a Monday article in Roll Call (subscription required) to report that "Steele doesn't look like he's planning on leaving his post anytime soon."
