In political news, Rudolph Giuliani’s campaign team in South Carolina is facing another setback. Last week the chair of Giuliani’s state campaign, Thomas Ravenel, stepped down after he was indicted for conspiracy to distribute cocaine. On Monday Giuliani named Ravenel’s father, Andrew Ravenel, to serve as the state’s new campaign co-chair. The elder Ravenel is no stranger to controversy himself. In 2000 he called the NAACP the “National Association for Retarded People.” When asked about the comment, Ravenel claimed he had misspoken. He said: “I made a rhetorical slip, and they want to lynch me for it.”
