GoodByeCynthia.com: According to the Atlanta Journal Constitution, a "group of political junkies... along Atlanta's northern Perimeter have put together an anti-Cynthia McKinney Web site encouraging Republicans to jump into ... McKinney's Aug. 20 primary against Denise Majette.

Creators of www.goodbyecynthia.com stress that their creation has no connection to the Majette campaign. But the Web site does solicit contributions that will be used "to ensure the defeat on Cynthia McKinney by communicating to the voters of her district the fact that another qualified candidate should go to Washington, D.C. in January, 2003." Among those in the creative circle: Mark Davis, a data processor in Gwinnett County with ties to several Republican candidates, and William "Bubba" Head, the first name in a Sandy Springs law firm.

The site includes a copy of McKinney's letter to Saudi Prince Alwaleed bin Talal, offering to make use of the $10 million the prince had offered to help rebuild New York City after the World Trade Center attacks. New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani had spurned the check."
