Untitled[edit]

I'm sure it will probably be deleted or edited, but the bit about Keller's campaign commercials is true. He ran on a "conservative Christian family values" campaign, somewhat similar to Santorum's rhetoric, and his commercials featured him walking around in pastoral settings talking about how pro-life and anti-gay he was.

External Links[edit]

There seems to be a little disagreement as to these external links and I move that both should be removed from the official page:

http://www.rickeller.com Unofficial wiki
http://www.kellerforcongress.com Campaign Web site

Both of these are noteworthy and relevant but they are deliberatly partisan in thier intent. Ric Keller unsuccessfully sued the owner of rickeller.com and this domain points to an anti-Keller wiki. Keller's current campaign site is a political advertisement so it is pro-Keller.

For the researcher who'd like a history of past campaign sites I'd recommend the wayback machine ( There is a federal version of campaign archives :
