Hubdub forecasts Michael Steele the newly elected Republican party chairman has a 49% chance of accepting Stephen Colbert’s challenge to have a ‘rap off’ on national television. In my own opinion though the odds are more like 5%.

Will RNC Chair Michael Steele accept Stephen Colberts challenge to a ‘Rap off’ on his show?

Steele has been trying to broaden the GOP since becoming chairman. Trying to garner more support among African Americans and other voting blocs in the US, but is he silly enough to think rapping will get him more support?

I can’t imagine anyone is advising Steele to actually rap. It would just make him look like a joke, especially when he’s trying desperately to fight off Limbaugh lovers and the Obama administration. So the question is, why does Hubdub still give the ‘rap off’ a almost 50% chance of happening?

My best guess is that people aren’t looking at the market anymore, which means there’s easy money out there for anyone reading this blog! If there was a real chance Steele would actually rap he wouldn’t still have a 73% chance of staying on as RNC chairman, because a ‘rap off’ with Stephen Colbert doesn’t seem like something GOP members pride themselves on.

Will Michael Steele last until Nov. 2, 2010 as RNC Chairman?
