Not to Spoil the YouTube Afterglow...

A conservative blog is claiming that "Democrats" planted a "forged" RNC anti-Harold Ford ad specifically to gin up allegations of racism. What's the phrase again? "Interesting, if true"? (Not entirely SFW, btw...)

You have to hear the boom-changa-changa porn soundtrack to really appreciate it, but here's the transcript:

(begins 'Paid for by the Republican National Committee')

(interspersed with photos of white women with black men)

Senate candidate Harold Ford Junior
thinks he's suitable to represent the values of Tennessee.

But while he may act pure as driven snow
this boyish young hustler has dark passions
even attending a hard-core pornography party

where girls stripped practically naked
to be leered at by Harold Ford Junior
and his virile posse of bachelor thugs.

Is this an example for Tennessee's children?

It's so brilliantly hamfisted I can't believe Democrats are actually behind it. Perhaps a Rove-ian triple head-fake? (Planting evidence to make it look like your opponent is planting evidence?) Then again, it is pretty hamfisted...

UPDATE: I "guess" I did not "use" enough "scare" "quotes" to indicate that this ad is, indeed, the work of Democrats... Though it's not "exactly" "subterfuge."
