RNC head coming to Raleigh Wednesday

The head of the Republican Party is coming to Raleigh tomorrow.

Republican National Committee Chairman Robert "Mike" Duncan will host a roundtable discussion with local Republican leaders at the state GOP headquarters at 2:30 p.m.

Rich Beeson, the RNC's political director, and Bill Stepien, deputy political director for the John McCain campaign, will also be at the event.

The visit is part of the "Victory 2008 Tour" to various states to promote voter registration, microtargeting, get-out-the-vote and fundraising efforts.

It follows a similar visit by Democratic Party head Howard Dean by 12 days.

How can it be a "round table discussion" when only the rnc chair shows up and you can't find a republican that is not in jail or on trial for a morals charge??

If the Republican chair wants to come away from this North Carolina meeting with a grade of "A" then he should sign up for Jack Hawke's short course: "How to Be a Republican in the Triangle."

I guess that's what happens when none of the states leading (and I use that word with all possible irony) Republicans are willing to go to the convention.

Funny.
