Group to spend $2.8 million on anti-Obama ad
By JIM KUHNHENN
WASHINGTON (AP) — A conservative nonprofit group with a past link to Sen. John McCain's presidential campaign wants to spend $2.8 million on an ad questioning Democrat Barack Obama's relationship to a founder of the 1960s radical group Weather Underground.
The ad, which is expected to begin airing Thursday in Michigan and Friday in Ohio, focuses on William Ayers, whose Weatherman organization took credit for a series of bombings, including nonfatal explosions at the Pentagon and U.S. Capitol four decades ago.
Organizers sought to air the ad on Fox News Channel, but a Fox spokesman said the network declined to run it.
Too sleazy even for Fox, I guess.This is from the Daily Koz site.

Margie, Obama's going to win, I can feel it! The Weatherman stuff isn't new... the Republican s are wasting their money. Nobody cares! GO OBAMA! Thanks for visiting my blog. Come back often! :)
