No-show

Hester Prynne on the run!

It seems that Michael Steele was going to be on the Marc Steiner show today; however, despite having been booked five weeks in advance, he bailed twenty minutes before he was to have come on, saying he had a previous engagement on another show -- namely, the Buzz on WBAL, a perhaps more comfortable forum for Steele. (It certainly is for Bob Ehrlich.) Of course, I don't believe his standing up WYPR had anything to do with his having embarassed himself in the national media the day before.

UPDATE: Steele on George W. Bush: "I've been quoted before as calling the President my homeboy, and that's how I feel."
