VIDEO: Steele: ‘I’m done’ reaching out to Obama

Republican National Committee (RNC) Chairman Michael Steele says he is finished reaching out to President Obama.

Steele told CNN that he has reached out to the president several times, to no avail, and that now he is done.

“Look, I like the president personally even though I think he’s got a little thing about me — I haven’t quite figured out what that is,” Steele said. “I’ve reached out to him several times, and I’m done.”

The RNC chairman said he is far from jealous of the president’s job responsibilities, and that both men would focus on their respective jobs.

“We both have leadership responsibilities and roles,” Steele said. “You’re on your track, I’m on my track. You do your thing, I’ll do my thing.”
