sam graves kay barnes advertisement

Oh yeah, and this Sam Graves goober...

Wed, 05/28/2008 - 4:23pm — tom

is my congressional representative. It's so embarrassing, really. He's apparently completely out of ideas as to how to run a campaign. I like Kay Barnes's response ad to this tactless attack.

(For more on the national coverage of Graves' pathetic ad, go here.)

If you want to learn more about Graves, you should go read this article. It's pretty informative and tells you about all you need to know about Sam Graves' thuggish campaign tactics.

I'm so proud he's my congressional rep.
