...disavowing any foreknowledge of the ad's little surprise, will be given the benefit of the doubt - at least for the moment. And perhaps that's not as ridiculous as it sounds: It's possible to imagine the RNC advertising staff watching Castellanos's ad with a distracted eye, and missing the reference altogether. (Of course, that line of reasoning makes it difficult to explain how the split-second flash was visible to a Seattle television viewer; the registered Democrat called the Gore campaign to register surprise over the ad's content...
...help avoid that trap, the G.O.P. launched the first personal attack ad of the campaign last Friday, mocking Gore with images of the Vice President's infamous Internet boast and Buddhist-temple visit.

Acting shocked that Bush would do such a thing, Gore and Lieberman look as phony as Bush wincing in pain over the Flintstones reference. Does anyone think if Gore were 10 points behind we wouldn't see an ad about Bush gaffes? In fact, Democrats...
...other motorists on the New Jersey Turnpike this day are thinking about the names of rocks. With traffic crawling at 5 m.p.h., most of them are silently cursing the electric sign superfluously warning them to REDUCE SPEED, CONGESTION AHEAD or pondering the antacid ad on a barely rolling...
