A Candidate Who Likes Girls -- For a Change

Republicans are attacking Rep Harold Ford (D-TN) in a couple of ads that bring up his attendance at a Playboy Mansion party. (See the ads below)



The Democratic Senate candidate let's loose a backhanded slap at the Mark Foley scandal and possible GOP cover up:

"I was there. I like football and I like girls. I don't have no apologies for that."

-- Rep Harold Ford Jr. (D-TN), quoted by the Memphis commercial Appeal, on attending a Playboy-sponsored party at the 2005 Super Bowl.

That slap at the GOP could result in their leadership threatening a serious sissy slap fight with the Congressman.

We also included the ads in this week's Watching Washington Video Podcast -- final story below.(PoliticalWire.com)
