Jack Abramoff Never Forgot His Name: Mitt Romney Can't Identify Ralph Reed

Even though Mitt Romney desperately panders to the extreme right-wing of the Republican Party, he can't identify one of its leaders.

At the fund-raiser for Mitt Romney at the posh 1818 Club on Friday, the candidate was making the introductions to the room.

Romney gestured to Ralph Reed and said, "Why it’s good to see Gary Bauer here." (Bauer is a former presidential candidate with ties, like Reed, to the Religious Right.)

Romney then caught himself. "Oh, I’m a little mixed up here," he said. But Romney still couldn’t place Reed’s face--and had to move on.
