War of Words over Controversial North Carolina Ad
April 24, 2008
Howard Dean and the Democrats want John McCain to pick up the phone and stop North Carolina’s Republican Party from running a controversial ad linking Barack Obama and Jeremiah Wright. Watch here:
Here’s part of Howard Dean’s statement:
"This is a test of leadership for John McCain. If he can't pick up the phone and make members of his own party stop airing a television ad he claims to oppose, how can he lead our country through an economic crisis or the war in Iraq?
I just spoke with Republican National Committee Deputy Chair Frank Frank J. Donatelli who tells The Brody File the following:
“The RNC, I guess unlike the DNC is not a dictatorship. State parties are sovereign entities. Our chairman Mike Duncan did speak to North Carolina officials. Senator McCain sent a strongly worded note expressing his view that the ad should be pulled. Look, all we can do is make clear our beliefs in this matter and I think we did that forcefully and strongly as soon as it came to our attention.”
Have you seen the ad? What do you think? Fair game or not?
