the ugliest congressional fight?
Aug. 15th, 2006 12:41 pmVernon Robinson is a Republican challenging incumbent Democrat Brad Miller for North Carolina's 13th House District. There is little doubt that Miller will win re-election, but the contest between them is possibly the ugliest Congressional race going.
The smear began shortly after Robinson won the primary, when he sent out a campaign letter drawing attention to the fact that Miller and his wife are childless. Brad Miller and his wife Esther Hall have subsequently been questioned publically about their sexual orientation, and have been forced to explain that they are childless because of Esther's endometriosis and hysterectomy.
Radio and video ads have since come out accusing Miller of wanting to hold a 'fiesta' for illegal aliens and gleefully supporing a "Homosexual Importation Act" [sic].
Warning, you may feel an intense need to scrub your eyes and ears after viewing this.
