Conservative Women Score Big: Ken Mehlman Officially Not Gay

Posted on March 18, 2005

Whew, that's a relief! The Raw Story reports that an upcoming GQ cover story is about gay Republicans, the gay mafia, the outing of gay-bashing, gay Republicans in or out of Bush's inner circle, or something like that. But the best part of the article is the fabulous news for the ladies: smooth-talking, single, 38 year-old Republican National Committee chairman Ken Mehlman is officially not gay!

After refusing to take reporters' many questions about his sexual orientation and all that unkind Beltway gossip about his being a fellow traveler, finally we get the definitive word about his datability.

Jake Tapper wrote the piece for GQ. He is an ABC News correspondent. Tapper says a senior official of the Bush campaign and friend of Mehlman's told him, "Ken Mehlman is not gay."

The Raw Story notes this is the "first-ever denial that the chairman of the Republican National Committee Ken Mehlman is gay." James Dobson will be so relieved.
