I came across this ad this morning. Perhaps this tactic can be used around the country to counter racially inflammatory ads. Let the sun shine in on this type of political advertising!

I meant to say I came across this "article" this morning, not "ad". It's definitely Monday!

As usual, the GOP is NOT effective in getting the truth out. The ad said that the GOP put the confederate flag atop the Captial building. IT WAS FRITZ HOLLINGS, the democrat senator who was governor at the time.

So, what did the Republicans do? They took the Democratic ad and played it on radio stations serving the white community. Their attitude was if Democrats want it out, then let the whole community see the kind of politics they practice.

'tis sport to see the engineer,
hoist by his own petard.

This is what happens when Republicans show some backbone, and stand up to the Dimocrats! Maybe this example will serve as a lesson to the GOP on a National level!!

Campaign consultants for Stavrinakis made it clear the radio ad wasn't their idea. It was the Senate Democratic Caucus. They said in hindsight that if they had to do it all over again, they would have vetoed the radio ad.

Okay, it wasn't their idea. However, the Stavrinakis campaign could have vetoed the radio advertisement. In others words, Stavrinakis approved the radio ad.

The next step would be to interview the Senate Democratic Caucus to see if they approve or agree with the ad. Republicans need to get as much milage out of this Democratic ad as possible.

This should be a political lesson for all conservatives. If the DemoNazi's lie, stick it in their face.

The Demo's always lie, so their should be ample opportunity for this tactic.

Finally the republicans are creating their own testosterone and not relying solely on Ann Coulter's. Whoever the genius was who made the move to play the ad outside the 'hood' should be moved up the ranks of strategists for the gop.

Why not do this all the time?

As always, negative ads beget negative ads.

How is it negative advertising when you simply replay your opponent's material?
