Tying another lead balloon on in Maryland

First Republican Senate candidate Michael Steele fundraises with a guy under investigation for possible perjury and outing a CIA agent, and now he's willing to take on the weight of George Bush's dismal approval ratings by having the President make an appearance at his next fundraiser.

Bush's latest approval rating in the state of Maryland? 33%. Don't think the other 2/3rds of the state won't be hearing about the Rove/Bush/Steele endlessly as the campaign heats up.
