GOP disavows Paul R. Nelson’s ‘sex’ ad

When Creepy Republicans Say Paul Nelson Is Creepy, He Must Be Really Creepy!
Rick Wiley, executive director of the Republican Party of Wisconsin, has called Democratic U.S. Rep. Ron Kind’s campaign and disavowed a controversial ad by Kind’s opponent, Paul R. Nelson.

“When I viewed it, I thought it was a terrible ad,” Wiley told me Monday, confirming he’d called Kind campaign manager Matt Sweeney last week. “The debate needs to focus on the issues,” Wiley said, adding he’s “not sure of the accuracy of the facts” in the ad.

Thursday, Nelson’s campaign issued a news release announcing the ad, which so far can be seen only on the Internet. Some television stations in the district have refused to air it.

The ad, which actually is recycled from a North Carolina congressional campaign, criticizes Kind’s votes against defense spending while also voting against cutting funding for five studies by the National Institutes of Health that involved sexuality.

“Ron Kind pays for sex, but not for soldiers,” the ad’s narrator intones. It also includes references to “masturbation habits of old men” and paying “teenage girls to watch pornographic movies with probes connected to their genitalia.”
