Republican Governors Association Hits Beshear In New Ad
The Republican Governors Association is now running their own ad in support of Governor Ernie Fletcher (R-KY), who has been trailing badly in the polls against Democratic nominee Steve Beshear:
The ad features a schoolgirl giving a "report" on Beshear and his Ten-Commandments-removing, soft-on-criminals, tax-raising ways. "Steve Beshear: He's done a lot to Kentucky," the girl concludes. "I mean, for Kentucky."
As the Lexington Herald-Leader notes, one person is not named at all in the ad: Fletcher, who has been dogged by scandals during his term.
