Democrats Featured on Republican Candidate's Web Site


ANNAPOLIS, Md. (AP)- Recent visitors to Michael Steele's senatorial campaign Web site might have wondered if they were in the right spot.

Prominently featured in a series of six rotating photographs on the home page was a picture of the Republican lieutenant governor and Democratic Rep. Steny Hoyer, both smiling broadly with Hoyer's hand resting on Steele's shoulder. A second photo showed Steele chatting with another Democrat, senatorial candidate Kweisi Mfume, who could wind up as his opponent in November.

Democrats say there is a good reason Steele is featuring Democratic officials instead of Republicans on his Web site- to distance himself from President Bush.

"Michael Steele cannot be elected as a Bush Republican, which he is, and he's going out of his way to paint himself as a Democrat," Artie Harris, spokesman for the Maryland Democratic Party, said Monday.
