Tom Reynolds, the Pride of NY 26th District
From the gentle pen of Robert Novak, traitor, comes this little tid-bit.
Rep. Thomas Reynolds of New York, a key member of the House Republican leadership, is soliciting political contributions by in effect scalping tickets for NCAA ''Sweet Sixteen'' games at Washington's sold-out MCI Center for more than 30 times face value.Well, at least he is not selling his wife and kids.
Reynolds is soliciting $2,000 a person to provide tickets for the March 24 tournament session that are sold by the NCAA for $65 apiece. ''Tickets are very limited,'' says the letter of invitation, ''so please RSVP as soon as possible.''
Although Reynolds is chairman of the National Republican Congressional Committee, the basketball money will fund TOMPAC, Reynolds' leadership political action committee that he uses to make contributions to selected candidates.
