The ad must be working...the DIM playbook calls for them to trot out Inouye with his Medal of Honor when they get into trouble on national defense...this is pretty deep in their playbook, so the focus group testing and overnight polling of the GOP ad must be pretty bad for them...watch the MSM avoid this ad and focus on the prospect for Iraqi civil war after next week elections, the "bad" Bush economy, Kyoto/global warming or other bash-Bush issues on the Sunday shows...
