Who do you believe? My initial response is to believe Ridge.

Ridge has always been "to the left of center" as a conservative.
It's politics on the highest level. People don't run for office who don't have big egos and strongly held beliefs. No politician is a saint, or even close.
But I agree, I think that Ridge is taking a shot to make a buck and to try to make some little place in history. He'll get his 15 minutes on this and quickly be relegated to the footnotes of history.
Whether its true or not, he should keep his f'ng mouth shut.
