Film du Jour: Sam Graves Ends His Career With Pelosi/Gay Attack Ad
Republican Missouri Rep. Sam Graves attacks his Democratic nemesis, Kay Barnes, who is running again him. Barnes is tied to the loverly Nancy Pelosi, who threw her a "ritzy" party in her honor, littered with homosexual types. Check out his whimsical yet back-firing attack ad on her and "San Francisco values."
We especially love the dancing (and interracial!) gay bar patrons. Nice.

How many Missouri kids watching that ad and wistfully thinking in the back of their heads, "I want to move there!"
Is the girl on the right preggers? Is she going to have an abortion after dancing with her friends? And where is his boyfriend?
I want to be at that party!
Matt415- You have been to the Marina before, right?
A)I love that it’s a ritzy San Francisco party (like there’s any other kind around here)
B)This isn’t a very fair interpretation of a local club, there are only three people in there.
I like how the Missourians think we look like them. I mean, nice mall hair on the fat blonde chick, but no one this side of the Sierra Nevada has looked that ugly since like the 80's.

despite what the lefties in town may think, once you leave the City Limits, in many many House races, people are beating many Democrats with the "SF Values" and "Pelosi Democrat" label, and they don't mean that in the "warmonger right winger" way some folks here seem to think. it's more in the "OMG this person in your community supports mandatory abortions, freeing murderers always, and making sure everyone is on the meth, the pot, the quaaludes and the acid" kind of of way.
In other words, in The Rest of the World, what is considered "liberal" is like, way different than what out of towners and the Unwashed Left seem to think.
I realize that comment is uncomputable to the pwogwessives and the like, but, deal.
Thank you for opening my eyes to the truth, Greg. I had lived in ignorance for far too long.

Can you give any examples in, say, the past two years where this has happened/is happening?
Polls please.
Whoa-- when was a camera installed in my bedroom?
I like Barnes response ad. It smacks of San Francisco jadedness.
Greg, I think you misspelled "Bay Area" when you typed "City Limits". Get a Pelosi + Tauscher + Eshoo + Lofgren + Spier tag team together and they could kick the combined white male asses of every hick Missouri congressmen put together.
wow, greg, you're so right. they're pulling out all the stops to brand democrats as "liberals" with "san francisco style politics." and that tactic sure led the republicans to victory in MS-01!
oh, wait, that was a miserable failure. pesky things, those "facts."
