PA-10: Carney Ad Slams Sherwood For Affair Scandal
Dem candidate Chris Carney has just released what is certainly one of the most hard-hitting ads of this cycle—it directly slams incumbent Don Sherwood over accusations that he not only had an extramarital affair, but also physically abused his mistress. It features a self-identified Republican voter named Joseph Lech holding up a photo of his daughter and saying: "I love my daughter tremendously. How can I tell her I support Don Sherwood and feel good about myself?" Sherwood has admitted to the affair, but hasn't confessed to violence. The once-safe incumbent only got 56% of the vote in his primary and is now a top Dem target. Click here to view the ad.

Any male who is smacking any female should not be holding public office.
It has NOTHING to do with politics, more importantly, it has to do with social acceptance, and smacking women is never acceptable.

Republicans finally seem to have hit the "sex scandal" phase of their downward spiral, and all I can say is that its about time.
What I do find disheartening is that the reason the Republicans might finally get thrown out on their collective asses isn't because thay gave away the country to the Super Rich, or that they failed to track down the nut cases who attacked us on 9/11, or that they turned most of the world against us by miring us in a war for Iraqi oil, or even because they turned the U.S. Constitution into their own personal toilet paper.
No, apparently none of those things is nearly as outrageous to the public as the fact that, "holy cow!, the Republicans have sex too!"
