DSCC Ad Against Burns Uses "G-D"

Here's another example of how Dems this cycle have produced their television ads with a harder edge and are willing to kick Republican candidates in the groin.

The DSCC is up today with a spot bashing Sen. Conrad Burns for his outre remarks about firefighters.

Recall the DSCC's ad against Sen. Mike DeWine, where his performance on the Senate intel committee was criticized, and an ad slamming TN SEN candidate Bob Corker for a problem with 9/11 calls in Nashville while he was mayor.

The numbers in all these races are either not moving -- or they are trending toward the Democratic candidate. Ads like these work.

Yes, ads like these work. But more importantly, when Burns says assine things like "See that guy over there? He hasn't done a God damned thing" he undermines his own campaign.

This isn't "bashing" Burns. Its pointing out Burns being a poor representative for the people of his state.
