Did RNC Chairman Michael Steele liken some GOPers to an elephant's rear end?

Steele, the RNC's first African-American chairman, said he wanted to correct the party's past missteps with the black community.

"I work every day in this job, as I like to put it, to turn the elephant," he said, referring to the party's iconic symbol.

"Now, I don't know if you ever had to turn an elephant, but the end you have to start with is not necessarily the best place to start."

Aides later stressed that Steele was not referring to anyone in particular and was only talking about his efforts to better position his party.
