by Smitty Allahpundit reviews the new Joe Miller ad: and poses the question How about some ads instead touting his military service and highlighting the sleazy performance of She Who Shall Not Be Named at the last debate? Or is that what he’s bringing Palin in for — to emphasize his service credentials as a […]
