Faso Ad Sad, Late

John Faso, not giving up against horrible odds, spends his last couch-cushion money on this attack ad linking Spitzer to Alan Hevesi, who almost gets as much screen time as Eliot himself.

The charge that Spitzer is going to the mat for the fallen Hevesi may be based on statements made in a debate that took place a month ago, and they're somewhat blunted now that Spitzer has dropped his endorsement of Hevesi. And Hevesi isn't exactly Spitzer's "running mate" to begin with, but it's a nice effort. Couple or three campaigns down the road, these Faso people are gonna be one well-oiled smearing machine.
