Congratulations, Liddy Dole: Most Disgusting, Misleading Ad Of 2008

Liddy Dole, desperate to get attention off the fact that she spends more time having lunch at the Watergate than she does in her home state of North Carolina, has completely fabricated an ad which claims that Kay Hagen attended a fundraiser by the "Godless Americans PAC":

Dole’s 30-second ad, which is running on television in North Carolina but has not (understandably) been promoted by the GOP, uses a September fundraiser co-hosted by 40 people, including a representative of the Godless America PAC, to falsely accuse Democrat Kay Hagan of being an atheist herself.

The end of the ad features a picture of Hagan with a female voice yelling "there is no God!" — the clear implication is that the voice is Hagan’s. In fact, the Democratic candidate is a Sunday School teacher and an elder at her Presbyterian church.

Pollster gives a good indication of why Dole thinks she has to resort to these kind of gutter tactics: Hagen 47.1, Dole 42.6.

Running on fumes.
