Democrat Christian Radio Ad Slams Foley
WASHINGTON (AP) - A Democratic candidate accuses her Republican rival of not doing enough to stop disgraced former Rep. Mark Foley and his cybersex exchanges with teenage males in an ad for Christian radio stations.

Democrat Mary Jo Kilroy is challenging seven-term Rep. Deborah Pryce, a member of the GOP House leadership, in one of the more competitive races. Kilroy's weeklong ads begin Saturday.

"What is going on in Washington? ... Deborah Pryce's friend Mark Foley is caught using his position to take advantage of 16-year-old pages," says the ad, which will air on Christian and Clear Channel Communications Inc., stations in central Ohio.

The spots cost Kilroy's campaign $5,000.

1. Running the ad where you wouldn't expect it
Good move by Kilroy. Make sure that Pryce's presumed core voters tie her to Foley. They won't be happy.

2. wth is the AP using "Democrat" instead of "Democratic" radio ad?
Or do they mean "A Democrat's" radio ad?

Otherwise, why is that wingnut word being used by the freakin Associated Press, fer crissakes?

3. Good. Don't be afraid to bludgeon them with their own diseased arm.
This is exactly what the Dems need to do. GO ON THE OFFENSIVE. But, instead they sit back afraid to use Foley like a crudgel and this has resulted in the Repukes turning the issue back to the Dems. WE NEED TO OWN THE ISSUE...
