The HillVeteran political operative Michael Steele says he is considering a run for governor of Maryland.
Steele, who previously served as the state's lieutenant governor and as head of the Republican National Committee, confirmed his consideration to The Hill on Monday.
During a radio interview on Friday, Steele said he would take "a very strong, long look at it and see where the chips fall."
I know Im not everyones favorite cup of tea within my party," Steele said. "I never have been. I dont let those things bother me."

Interesting potential matchup: former RNC Chair vs former DNC Chair.
