Yesterday Georgia voters decided the fate of two well known national figures, one a right winger and the other a leftist. Ralph Reed, former head of the Christian Coalition and partner of disgraced felon, Jack Abramoff, was vying for the state’s second highest office. Reed was soundly defeated in his bid to become the state’s next Lieutenant Governor and rightly so. Reed’s brand of politics is unsuitable for anyone but the most ignorant amongst us, those easily swayed by a smooth talking politician.

Leftist Cynthia McKinney, perhaps the greatest embarrassment on Capitol Hill now faces an August 8th run-off in order to maintain her seat in Congress. McKinney, who as gained frequent notoriety for all the wrong reasons, most recently striking a capitol police officer has only two options: Go on welfare or run for Congress, her level of ineptitude is that high as render her unfit for any job with even the slightest degree of responsibility, which perhaps explains why she feels so at home in the halls of Congress.
