It gets tough down in TN:
Washington, DC – The Free Enterprise Committee today launched a new television ad campaign to expose the two faces of Tennessee’s senatorial candidate Harold Ford, who campaigns publicly as a man of the people but privately spends like millionaire, lavishing himself with gifts paid for by big-money campaign contributors. … The audio reads: “Luxurious 5 Star Hotels, $32,000. Fancy designer Armani suit, $2,549. Fine Davidoff cigars, $674. Living it up on campaign cash but pushing higher taxes for Tennessee families? Priceless. Tell Harold Ford you can’t afford higher taxes. The Free Enterprise Fund Committee is responsible for the content of this advertising.” The video: Plays like Visa card ad graphics with images of each extravagant item. Introducephoto of Ford with same Visa graphics. Change text: Tell Harold Ford you can’t afford higher taxes with non-campaign phone. Billboard with FEFC website and full 527 disclaimer under text: unafFORDable.
