KY-GOV: New ad puts Fletcher in big trouble

It is rare to find a political ad that puts this information into just 30 seconds.  Like with the issue of climate change, it is difficult to argue with facts.  A progressive group called Blue Grassroots Fund released this ad on television, which targets ethically challenged Kentucky Republican Governor Ernie Fletcher.

Fletcher is toast:

As Chris Cillizza of the Washington Post notes, this ad is perfect because Fletcher becomes his own worst enemy:

The ad, which was produced by Envision Communications, is so effectivebecause it uses Fletcher's own words against him. Taken from footage ofhis inaugural address in 2003, Fletcher promises to bring change andreal reform to state government even as his own indictment and those ofaides around him are flashed on the screen.

The election is on November 6th, so it's coming right up.
