The Republican Party is running this ad in Tennessee against Democratic candidate Harold Ford.

The REPUBLICAN CANDIDATE in Tennessee says:

Corker today repeated a demand that the Republican National Committee stop running a television ad that Corker called "tacky." It features a purported Playboy model who tells viewers, "I met Harold at the Playboy party!" One RNC source indicated the committee is likely to continue running the ad.

Tacky is a nice word for what this ad is. Republican values on display.

    Hmmm. The ad is something you don't see often.

    Sarcastic humor. I wonder if it will work? After all, TN is supposedly one of them good ole boy red states.

    Rather daring of the Repubs, actually. Who would have thought??

    edger - Pleaseeeeee. I remember the Texas ad in 2000.

    Republican Values? Republican Values?

    Is that like an oxy-moron? Or maybe a moron on oxyconton? Whatever they are, they're pretty close to irrelevant anyway. They have so few supporters left now that they don't matter anymore, they just make noise and smell, like most babies, and they're just background noise now.

    Second most humorous ad this season since the Zucker/ Albrieght ad.  That sets the bar for humor.
