billvon 3,132 #1 June 25, 2008 . . . a senator running for re-election associates himself to the _other_ party's presidential candidate to try to give himself a boost in the polls. From a Gordon Smith (R-OR) ad: ============== "Who says Gordon Smith helped lead the fight for better gas mileage and a cleaner environment? Barack Obama! He joined with Gordon and broke through a 20-year deadlock to pass new laws which increase gas mileage for automobiles." ============== Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
