Integrity? What's that?

Having started and made a mess of a war in Iraq and failing on most domestic issues, too, the GOP is spending millions of dollars until November making personal attacks on Democrats to distract voters from the actual issues like Iraq and the massive corruption in the Republican party.
Republicans are planning to spend the vast majority of their sizable financial war chest over the final 60 days of the campaign attacking Democratic House and Senate candidates over personal issues and local controversies, GOP officials said.

The National Republican Congressional Committee, which this year dispatched a half-dozen operatives to comb through tax, court and other records looking for damaging information on Democratic candidates, plans to spend more than 90 percent of its $50 million-plus advertising budget on what officials described as negative ads.
Democrats would do well to stick to saying how they will fix the messes the gops have made in the last decade rather than resorting to juvenile personal attacks. I hope this strategy backfires. Americans are sick of negative attack ads, and recent trends have shown positive campaigning, like Tim Kaine, for instance, is a turn on.

But today's Republicans have no morals, no integrity, and no honor, so what do you expect?
