The Democratic National Committee today released an ad attacking John McCain’s blooming friendship with Ralph Reed, the Evangelical leader and Congressional hopeful whom McCain helped take down during the Jack Abramoff lobbying scandal. Reed had a long career with Abramoff, who bilked clients out of millions of dollars.
Despite McCain and Reed’s stormy past – and the fact that Reed may have backed McCain attack ads during the 2000 election – the Republican candidate’s been saddling up to right-wing Reed in what the DNC calls a “desperate to raise campaign cash to run more negative attack ads.” This ad, by the way, is called “Tainted.”

Is this the same guy who has a gay adopted son he threw out of the family after the kid came out?
seitan-on-a-stick
Or should it be “Tainted Love” ?
Sometimes I feel I’ve got to
Run away I’ve got to
Get away
From the pain that you drive into the heart of me
The love we share
Seems to go nowhere
And I’ve lost my light
For I toss and turn I can’t sleep at night
(chorus)
Once I ran to you (I ran)
Now I’ll run from you
This tainted love you’ve given
I give you all a boy could give you
Take my tears and that’s not nearly all
Oh…tainted love
Tainted love
Now I know I’ve got to
Run away I’ve got to
Get away
You don’t really want IT any more from me
To make things right
You need someone to hold you tight
And you’LL think love is to pray
But I’m sorry I don’t pray that way
(chorus…)
Don’t touch me please
I cannot stand the way you tease
I love you though you hurt me so
Now I’m going to pack my things and go
Tainted love, tainted love (x2)
Touch me baby, tainted love (x2)
Tainted love (x3)

Native Americans KNOW Abramoff and Reed, and just a hint…keep off the REZ you two.
