Republicans may run AGAINST Gays, but at least they'll let them run the RNC!

Mike Signorile has an interesting article in the latest New York Press reporting about the quiet ambiguity of incoming RNC Chairman Ken Mehlman, who ran the BC04 Campaign. Mehlman and his "buddies" at the White House refuse to answer one way or the other about his orienation.

Here's an excerpt:

Of course, if the White House or the RNC went on record saying Mehlman is straight, it would invite the media to study the issue further and report facts they may find to the contrary. By not saying anything, the White House keeps the topic off-limits entirely.

This also has some interesting (frightening?) insight into the way Mehlman ran BC04:

Mehlman was actually boasting to the governors about his slick new strategies, telling them that the Bush-Cheney campaign studied voters' consumer habits—basically snooping into voters' personal lives—in targeting them.
