I read a great piece on the boy wonder of shady Georgia politics, Ralph Reed yesterday. Reed apparently had decided to run for the open congressional seat vacated by Republican John Lindner. We can now all take solace in the fact that lil’ Reed has decided not to run:
Former Christian Coalition architect Ralph Reed, who is known to be considering a possible bid in Georgia’s open 7th district, announced Tuesday that he’d make his future plans known on Wednesday. But multiple Georgia GOP insiders said Tuesday afternoon that they believe the former lieutenant governor candidate will simply be announcing that he will pass on the Congressional contest.
According to one source, Reed, a well-known conservative voice who lives in the 7th district, has not reached out to key supporters in Georgia about running for Congress. Others pointed out that his trip to New York on Monday for a Fox New appearance isn’t the move of a would-be candidate getting his team together ahead of a Congressional campaign announcement.
Many are the sins of Mr. Reed. Most of them are too numerous to recount. But let’s try. Here, here, and here.
