Ralph Reed, Southeast regional chairman of the Bush-Cheney '04
campaign and former executive director of the Christian Coalition,
confirmed on Sunday that he accepted more than $1 million in fees from
a lobbyist and a public relations specialist whose work on behalf of
American Indian casinos prompted a federal investigation. In addition
to his role running the campaign in the Southeast, Reed is a liaison to
the Christian evangelical community, and many of its leaders are
adamantly opposed to gambling. Reed has been widely credited with
leading the political mobilization of the Christian right since the
late 1980s. [more ]
