DNC Reponds To RNC Ad Buy

The Democratic National Committee is slapping back at Republicans, who poked Min. Leader Harry Reid (D) with a critical TV ad in his home state.

The RNC-produced ad accuses Reid of working to gut the Patriot Act, which the ad credits with savings lives and preventing terrorist attacks.

The Dem ad takes on President Bush directly. It juxtaposes Bush's remarks about tax cuts and the economy with "the reality" -- things aren't so rosy, according to Dems. The tagline: American Deserves The Truth.

The Dems will also air the ad in Nashville, where Bush has a Wednesday visit planned, so they say it's not a "response ad," per se.

Alas, if On Call weren't a family publication, we could easily come up with a metaphor that evokes a less flattering version of this.

Nice of you guys to poke fun of Sheehan's spelling errors when your headline here reads that the DNC "reponds".

Nice.
