Could this ad be Reid's downfall?
WorldNetDaily ^ | March 14, 2010 | Drew Zahn

Posted on 03/15/2010 11:52:12 AM PDT by tradergem

Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., will soon be facing a public-relations nightmare in his bid for re-election: a TV ad campaign produced by the same strategist whose "Willie Horton" commercial spoiled Michael Dukakis' 1988 presidential hopes.

See the commercial and read the rest of the article here:

Never thought I would ever miss Tom Daschle, but Reid’s reign of terror makes Daschle look like a Cub Scout.

I think Ried’s downfall has come and gone ... the rest is a mere formality.

So someone who supports Reid has a business partner who supposedly used slave labor overseas. Weak, depends on Reid’s response and MSM running or not running with the story.

The ad seems to me to be more like a 22LR than a 50BMG.

This commercial won’t do diddly.

Not a lotta sizzle there. They'd be better off running a loop of Harry saying the loss of 36,000 jobs is good news for the economy while superimposing the Las Vegas unemployment rate over his ugly face. And then repeat it over and over again......

The problem is, if Reid can pass Obamacare by corrupt cheating and rule-breaking, then it won’t matter if he crashes and burns. He will have succeeded in destroying our country before he destroys himself.

Hey, Harry! No planet for you to rule over, Baby!

Not much to write home about. I can get mad enough at Reid just thinking about him the commercial is weak.

Still, he can’t be pounded enough.

His legacy must be regarded as a
fully corrupt failure as a Senator.

He is a loathsome, despicable being.

The commercial sounds like a good idea, but I wonder if his supporters will start screaming that he was swift-boated? Let ‘em scream, I say.

Not an end all be all by any means. I am still not sure how slave labor and union labor are even remotely comparable. I mean, the slaves are working for their master and we are slaves to the unions.

Doesn’t compare to the Willy Horton ad. Most folks will just say “So what?”

Defeat Obamacare call list: List now contains the new MAYBES culled from FR posts. Be sure to call KNOWN RINOS too.

Code Red” - House Target List on Health Care

The National Republican Congressional Committee has published a target list on health care. In addition to continuing to contact the five Tennessee Democrat Congressmen, you can go http://www.votervoice.net/link/clickthrough/ext/94697.aspx to contact some of these targets. Much of the talk following Obama’s announcement has focused on how to defeat this second bill through reconciliation, but that is misleading because the first step to defeating Obamacare is not by concentrating on defeating the “fixer” bill but by defeating the Senate bill in the House when it goes to the floor for an up-or-down vote on Thursday, March 18th.

Congressional Dems on Twitter
http://www.arrghpaine.com/congressional-dems-on-twitter

And here are toll-free numbers we can use to call any Senators or Reps.
At the first number below you must wait through a tape recording urging you to tell your Rep or Senator to vote “yes” for the health care bill. Just hang on and when the recording is over, you will get the Capitol operator. Just ask for your Rep or Senator’s office. Then you will either talk to an aid or have the chance to leave a message for him/her to vote NO on the health care bill.

When you use the second number and the Capitol operator comes on, just ask for your Rep or Senator’s office. Every time I use this number I get the Rep or Senator’s answer machine, so it may be set up that way all the time...to go to their answer machine. Either way you can leave a message to vote NO on the health care bill!

We need to use these toll free numbers that have been set up for the health care/ BO supporters and illegals to use! After all they are FREE!

I see Harry is even more crooked than he was when I lived in Vegas and he was on the Gaming Board. The little weasel should rot in hell.
