Rush where did all the conservatives go yesterday in Mississippi? I live within the ad range of that district. There were at least five ads for Childress for every ad for Davis. They were very effective at painting Davis as a corrupt, good ol' boy and tied him in to the perceived greed and corruption in D.C. They tied Davis to Bush's negatives and the weak attempt to tie Childress to Obama did not counter it. If I had not known about the men already, the ads would have been effective for me.
The latest direct mail piece accuses Davis, the mayor of the Memphis suburb of Southaven, of attempting to honor Confederate general and Ku Klux Klan founder Nathan Bedford Forrest with a statue of him in his hometown -- a charge that the Davis campaign vigorously disputes.
And on Sunday, Democratic officials distributed DCCC fliers at African-American churches in the district that accuse Republicans of making it harder for us to vote fake phone calls, calls with the wrong election date, uniformed guards at the polls, even people inside the polls challenging each and every vote.
