Foley was a Dhimmicrat until he discovered that it wasn't getting him elected. Then he switched parties.

I've read that before, but I can't source it. Do you have a reference? Thanks.

From http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mark_Foley:

At the age of 23 Foley was appointed to the Lake Worth City Council as a Democrat. After some failed bids for higher political offices, he switched parties in the 1980s [7]. He was elected to the Florida House of Representatives in 1990 and to the Florida Senate in 1992.

Right you are! A well footnoted Wikopedia.

Thanks!
