After some discussion, most of us have become very sceptical of that 527 -- they may well be a deliberate Dem attempt to discredit Republican 527-s, including the SwiftVets, by being so totally off the wall.

I don't believe any republican, that is, any republican that wants Bush to win, could even fathom running such an ad and think it would be a good thing. The dems and the press would use this to completely obliterate the Swift Boat issue and mire Bush in racial controversy. I can just hear it:

1988: Bush 41, Lee Atwater, Willie Horton ad
2004: Bush 43, Karl Rove, George Reissfelder

"They're doing it again!" We wouldn't hear the end of it. This stinks to high heaven.

I respectfully disagree. If the stuff is true, it would not be good for Kerry. There is nothing "racist" about showing a cop killer/would be killer as running free thanks to a lefty. The rats could try to spin it anyway they want. It would hurt Kerry if done right.
