GOP Religious Whack Jobs Choose Blackwell for RNC Chair
Ken Blackwell is gathering his support for RNC Chair, it is heavily skewed towards Radical Right Wing Christian Clerics. As a Democrat who wishes Republicans to wander in the wilderness for a long time, I am glad to see Blackwell, backed by extremist Christian mullahs, get the job. But, hey, I’m biased.

4. Reward for rigging Ohio for Bush in 2004?
No surprise to me. A man without ethics as RNC chair is perfect.

7. This is their attempt to win black voters
It's all props and no substance, but the religious wing of the party is used to that sort of attempt at winning voters.

9. His main selling point is his willingness to tamper with elections...
THAT's the most valuable asset he brings to the table.

14. no, not really
It is an attempt to put a Black person in place to attack a Black president. This way, they assume it will be harder to attribute racist actions to their actions.

11. The Christian Reich
has had the GOP by the balls since 1980. The Reagan presidency was the perfect inroad for right wing fundamentalists to essentially take over the Republican party, and they haven't relaxed their grip since.

12. Hopefully our meager media reps will constatnly refer to him as
"the man responsible for remapant 2004 election fraud" or "the man who oversaw the disenfranchisement of thousands of AA voters in 2004"

bu they wont. Actually Malloy will, but no one else.
