WASHINGTON - Mikey Weinstein, the Albuquerque businessman who fought evangelism at the Air Force Academy, is opposing his one-time ally, Rep. Heather Wilson, Albuquerque Republican.
Weinstein is hosting a $250-a-ticket fund-raiser at his home next Wednesday for Wilson's Democratic opponent, New Mexico Attorney General Patricia Madrid.
Retired Gen. Wesley Clark, a 2004 Democratic presidential contender, is scheduled to attend.
The invitation says in part, "I want to have the opportunity to tell you personally why my family and I are never again supporting Heather Wilson and why we are fully supporting Patricia Madrid. . . ."
The invitation represents the final break with Wilson by Weinstein, a registered Republican who worked three years as a White House lawyer under President Ronald Reagan...
... Weinstein said he was an early supporter of Wilson, a fellow graduate of the Air Force Academy, and held fund-raisers for her.
