>>>Ever since RNC Chairman Michael Steele said he wants to give the Republican party a "hip-hop makeover," Comedy Central's Stephen Colbert has been chomping at the bit to net Steele into a rap battle.

On Colbert's Thursday episode, Steel won without even showing up.

"Just to help him hip-hop-ify the party, I invited chairman Steele to come on my show for a discussion about the benefits of a small government rap battle," said Colbert.
"Since then, Steele has twice accepted my invitation in the press, going so far as to say, 'bring it on.' But he has yet to bring it ... Even though the invitation was very clearly BYOI: bring your own it. I don't understand why he is not here."

Instead of penciling in another date, Colbert pulled a hoodie out of his jacket, picked up a mic and started his flow.>>>>
