In interviews with the Washington Times and Politico, Steele has taken to using hip-hop lingo to make over the Republican Party. In an effort to help Steele fully realize his nascent rebranding strategy for the "Grand Old Posse," Colbert wants the chairman to come on his show for a "frank discussion of core conservative principals in the form of freestyle rap." Fo sheezy.
