The National Republican Senatorial Committee has sunk to a new all-time low in their latest attack against Congressman Harold Ford Jr.The NRSC's latest attack is a new attack website in which they have built and pay for called "Fancy Ford."
The site pretty much speaks for itself. It is a disgrace.
The Republicans love retaliating against those who speak out against their failed choices by viciously and falsely attacking those people.
Clearly, this is yet another example of that.
However, they are not going to get away with it this time.
Harold Ford Jr. represents a better future for all Tennesseans and the Republicans know that.
Attacks like these on the Congressman will not stand because the people of Tennessee's desire for change carries far more weight than any attack the Republicans can issue.
I urge everyone to stand up and fight for the Congressman now because when he is elected to the U.S. Senate he will fight for all us every single day!
Do not let these vile attacks stand!
Fight for Congressman Ford and a better future for Tennessee!

65 Days
Days of Congressional Inaction on Ethics
Above is the number of days that have passed since Jack Abramoff pleaded guilty to bribing Congressman.
It is also the number of days in which Congress has failed to pass an ethics reform bill that would limit private travel, ski and golf junkets, and would call for a full disclosure of expenses by lobbyists on members of Congress.
It is time for Congress to step up and pass an ethics reform bill that would do all of the above. In addition, it is time to end the pork barrel spending system as we know it and establish an independent ethics commission that would review ethics complaints against members of Congress.
I am proud Congressman Harold Ford Jr. is fighting for that reform!
