Dole/Hagan Senate race in NC getting nasty…
A remarkable ad out from Elizabeth Dole’s campaign in a Senate race she is losing in North Carolina has been getting plenty of buzz and cable airtime recently. It’s also been getting pretty much universal condemnation from Democrats, Republicans and non-partisans alike.
Why the fuss? Watch for yourself…
Besides using some factually adventurous claims against her opponent, Dole is crossing the line entirely by putting in a final audio clip of the “Godless America” organizer saying “there is no God” - and clearly implying that the voice is Hagan’s.

Hagan and the Dems are outraged, leading them to put up their own hard-hitting rebuttal, so on and so forth. It’s wild down there…
