Ghosts From the Past

John Conyers revives the Christian Coalition. RNC Catholic outreach and John A. Kelly. Joe Lieberman's next big gig.

(Page 3 of 3)

Kelly was suspended from his duties by the RNC after questions were raised about his resume, and whether he'd actually worked as a police officer, attended or graduated from Fordham Law School, or attended Notre Dame (he attended Holy Cross Junior College in South Bend, Indiana, graduating in 1972). He later resigned his RNC post.

His biography used for public appearances today says, "In the past, Kelly has been the White House Liaison to the Republican National Committee for political and personnel issues, a political aide to Presidents Reagan and George H.W. Bush."

"Everyone deserves a second chance, but Catholic outreach is a disaster right now," says a former senior Reagan Administration official who dealt with Kelly during his time at the RNC in the early 1980s. "Two thousand six was just a mess for us and 2008 isn't looking any better."

p> PAYBACK TIME br> Senior Democrats in the Senate and at the Democratic National Committee are girding themselves for what they see as an inevitable appearance by Sen. Joseph Lieberman at the Republican National Convention in Minneapolis-St. Paul this summer. /p>

Lieberman endorsed Sen. John McCain and has campaigned with the GOP Presidential nominee several times. Lieberman caucuses with the Democrats in the Senate, though he is an independent.

"If he were to appear at the Republican convention, it would essentially be over between him and the Democrats, though we pretty much did that to him when our leadership supported Ned Lamont during the primary back in 2006," says a senior Democrat leadership aide in the Senate. "It's too bad, because both Hillary and Barack could've used him in their campaigns."
