From pages 26-27 of the Senate report on Abramoff’s bilking of Indian tribes:

On a similar project in early 2000, Reed and Abramoff discussed using four groups instead of one as conduits to pay Reed: NCPPR, ATR, Toward Tradition and one unidentified group. Abramoff later advised Reed that “Rabbi Lapin [head of Toward Tradition] does not have a c4

No one is squirming. I feel quite happy with what I have heard out in the different counties.

Me think you doth protest too much…

“On the Strategic Vision Poll, I didn’t realize it was conducted on a Friday through Sunday. I don’t believe polls that are taken during that time. It’s too hard to get a good cross section of people over the weekend — especially the weekend after the 4th when a lot of people are returning home. ”

I still think Reed will win by 15 % maybe 10% minimum This week is far from over.

What did the polls show in the Barnes-Perdue race?

Same thing happened in 2002 with Barr vs. Linder. The nuttier the Barr-Nuts’ antics became, the more people got pissed-off and went out to make a statement.

BY the way, you folks know who was behind the scenes helping Barr, right? Ralphie Poo Reed.

Ralph is being treated like he has treated the people that have worked with him in the past.

That is why there are so many elected officials, county chairs, party people, active volunteers, and christian conservatives working against him.

Casey Cagle gives respect to the people that work with him and does not threaten those who do not. Ralph’s lake of respect for the people in the party is what will lead to his demise.

Face it: this is the worse week in Ralph Reed’s life. Everywhere you look, the walls are coming down. Someone even suggested his campaign is like the Titanic going down to the ocean’s bottom. An apt comparison, because when this is all over Century Strategies will probably have to fold up operations and Ralph will move back to Miami. Georgia’s voters have now been exposed to the “real” Ralph, and they plan to reject him at the ballot box next Tuesday.

No vision…no plan…no ideas.

Ralph Reed is the ONLY candidate in this race with a plan for a better Georgia.

I’m proud of the positive campaign Ralph has run and it has clearly shown him to be very different that his negative, ethics challenged opponent.

If Cagle wins, I will vote Democrat. Let the GOP see how many elections they will win without the Christian Conservative Vote. The GOP have begun to take the Christian Conservative vote for granted as the Democrats have done the African American vote. They think we have no where to go, but they are wrong!!!

There is intense anger out there now. I have not seen anything like that since the State Flag was changed by Barnes…

Reed Tries to Buy Election With Lobbyist Fees
7/11/2006 4:38:00 PM

WASHINGTON, July 11 /U.S. Newswire/ — Today Campaign Money Watch questioned Ralph Reed about where the $500,000 he loaned his campaign for lieutenant governor of Georgia came from.

According to Campaign Money Watch, Reed made millions of dollars as a lobbyist for American Indian casinos and the Northern Marianas Islands, where employers forced female employees to become prostitutes and to have abortions if they became pregnant. He used Christian organizations as front groups for his lobbying activity paid for by disgraced, convicted lobbyist Jack Abramoff and his clients.

“Ralph Reed spun his relationships with Christian organizations into personal gold by using them as fronts for convicted lobbyist Jack Abramoff’s sleazy clients,” said David Donnelly, director of Campaign Money Watch. “Now he’s taken that money to try to buy the election. Campaign Money Watch will tell voters exactly where he got it: Lobbying against legislation that would have protected female workers from being forced to have abortions and to become prostitutes.”
