Ralph Reed, the lowest of the low...
He worked with the Christian Coalition to help them become a strong political force. He was white bread. He was religious. He was moral. He brought religion into politics more than any other person, it could be argued.

However, now we find that he was working hand in hand with Jack Abramoff. He was instrumental in getting the money in the right hands, including his own, in getting gambling casinos in Mississippi. God knows what else he's been up to. Maybe we can get Pat Reobertson to pray for his soul?

3. Actually, I think he wants to run for Lt. Gov. of Georgia.
I don't know why anyone wants to be the Eltee-Governor.

4. He is running for Lt. Gov in GA
I'm absolutely loving it. He has refused thus far to drop out of the race. If he stays, he's going to drag the whole GOP ticket down with him. Sweet. :evilgrin:

8. Run, Ralph, run!
Stupid is as stupid does (apologies to Forrest Gump).


The GOP's moral bankruptcy Bill. Ralph should fit right in.

2. Years ago, the actually-sincere religious right complained that Reed
"went native" when the Christian Coalition became a big political organization.
