The standard by which all future attack ads *must* be judged.

I know nothing about the race for New Orleans Coroner (except that yes, it is an elected position): I don’t know the participants, the issues, the truthfulness of this ad, or even whether I’m helping a Republican or a Democrat by reproducing it.

AND I DON’T CARE.

Via TPM, who couldn’t believe that that an ad where the coroner of New Orleans is being accused of selling organs actually got commercial airtime, either.  But they got confirmation.

    Somebody REALLY wants to be coroner. I say if McKenna, whoever he is, wants it that badly, LET him.

    I’d agree that it’s a cool idea for an attack ad, but it’s vaguely reminiscent of Jeff Feiger’s giant chicken ads during the MI gov. race some years back.

    That they do make the county coroners an elected position, must be a midwest thing where every gov position needs to be an elected position. Anyway, the ad was hilarious.

    That’s the kind of bottom of the barrel politics I like to see in my coroner :)
