Philip Klinkner, the James S. Sherman Professor of Government, discussed Michael Steele's performance during his first 100 days as Republican National Committee Chairman in a Baltimore Sun article titled "For GOP's Steele, A Time To Fly Or Fall." "In fairness to Steele, I can't imagine a worse time to be chairman of the RNC. But he's only made the situation worse for himself," said Klinkner. "Steele's just done a bad job, no matter what standard you want to hold him to." The May 10 article appeared the following day in the Los Angeles Times.
