Looks like the “vast right-wing conspiracy” crew are back in business down south.
Writing in Salon magazine, Joe Conason prepares readers for what is sure to become “an unusually nasty presidential election”, pointing to this ad by Citizens United, written and produced by the same group of “consultants” who brought Paula Jones, Willie Horton and Whitewater to the world.

If Bushies’ handlers are really really lucky, they’ll even dredge up a sex scandal.
