Rumors have it that Cherokee County Commission Chairman Mike Byrd is telling constituents in Cherokee County that “John Konop will be elected Congressman over my dead body.”

Chuck Eaton (R) of Atlanta has decided to throw his hat in the race for PSC.  He faces fellow Republican Drew Evangelista in the primary.  If he wins the July primary, he will face incumbent commissioner David Burgess (D) in the November general election.

In an upcoming story to be published in Newsweek, details of an internal revolt by some lawyers in the Justice Department are revealed in regards to the president’s war on terror and, specifically, the illegal wiretapping activities.

Now, the IRONY to all of this is that we have a serial liar like Ralph Reed (“I didn’t know my money came from Indian casinos”…”I am not a lobbyist, so I don’t have to register”…”I was duped just like all of the other Christians were by my friends Jack Abramoff and Grover Norquist”…) being highly praised by an adulterer/liar like Newt Gingrich (who apparently thinks Ralph will help him get elected President), all on the same day a bill that promotes the posting of the Ten Commandments on government buildings in Georgia gets dropped. The irony is just too sweet.

Rumors have it that Ralph Reed‘s longtime business associate, Tim Phillips, is departing Century Strategies and moving to D.C. to accept a position as Exec. Director of Americans for Prosperity, an anti-tax group. This rumor, if accurate, deals a very big blow to the Reed campaign for Lt. Governor.  Phillips has  been the one largely […]

Rumors have it that Congressman Tom Price (R-GA) has his reelection campaign humming right along…straight out of his Cobb County (federal) district office.

Rumors abound about how his district personnel, upon waking-up to a challenge-candidate out of Cherokee County, have spent the last several months shaking-down businesses and associations and encouraging them that if they don’t block John Konop from making any headway, they will be “cut-off” from any help from (and, we quote) “The Congressman.”

Rumors have it that 9 members of Lt. Governor candidate Ralph Reed’s Steering Committee recently flipped sides in the race.

The nine were listed on Reed’s big list released last spring. However, they recently sent this letter to the Reed campaign:

“As you are aware, our names were listed as members of the Reed for Lt. Governor Steering Committee released by your campaign to the news media.
