If you're referring to the "heads up their asses" ad, yeah, I've seen it. I think its great, but lots of people find it to be in "poor taste," which is strange when you consider that the big dig would be found to be in poorer taste.

It's funny, but is it enough to make people vote for a dude named Christy?

Only godless liberals would name their boy with a girl's name.

no, but it might get enough people to not vote for a woman named Kerry. this guy is going to be a ross perot/ralph nader influence on the vote i think.

this is about that same candidate. it must suck when your own family starts donating to opponents. too bad too, because he had a hometown boy sort of thing going on...the only candidate who is actually from massachusetts.

Quote:
Mihos's siblings donate cash to Healey camp
October 3, 2006

The brother of independent gubernatorial candidate Christy Mihos contributed $500 to the campaign of Lieutenant Governor Kerry Healey, according to filings yesterday from the Healey campaign.

James Mihos previously made his opposition to his brother's campaign clear, donating a total of $1,000 in 2005 and 2006 to Attorney General Thomas F. Reilly's campaign.

The sister of Christy Mihos also confirmed that she contributed to the Healey campaign. Reached by telephone, Marlene Bucuvalas declined to say why she made the contribution or to specify the amount. Records show she gave $100. She had previously donated $250 to Reilly's campaign.

Nicole Nionakis, the spokeswoman for candidate Mihos, could not be reached for comment.

Christy Mihos, asked in a television interview this spring about his brother's contributions to Reilly, said ``Hey, look, families stay together, move apart, and it is what it is. . . . I regret that we're not as close as we once were, but you know, I moved to the Cape, everyone sort of goes their separate way."
