It’s nice that President Bush denounced all "527" ads today, including the Swift Boat Veterans for Truth ad, which has brazenly attacked Kerry’s military record.
Now let’s see if Kerry denounces moveon.org’s Bush/Hitler advertisements and “Fahrenheit 9/11”, which is nothing more than an anti-Bush ad in the movie theaters. Betcha he won’t. He now has an advantage over Bush due to Bush denouncing the anti-Kerry ads first.
Chances are that he will do the political thing and demand a stop to 527 ads, but won’t acknowledge the specific ads, even if he is questioned about it. That would fall into his usual pattern of statement and denial.
I doubt anything will change. This is positive publicity for both candidates, but things are going to get a lot worse before Election Day happens.
