Tennessee Senate Race: Ford (D) Vs. Corker (R)

We posted a story a few days ago, about a nasty, some have called racist ad, that the republicans were playing about Tennessee Senate candidate Harold Ford, who is black. The ad among other things plays up the fact that Ford, who is single, attended a Superbowl party last year at the Playboy mansion, as if that is the worst sin in the world.
The story goes on to say that Fords Republican opponent Bob Corker requested to Republican chairman Ken Mehlmen to pull the add, Melhmen responded that he did not have the power to pull the ad that he was paying for. The ad continued to run while everyone passed the buck. You can see the ad which is for the supposedly “family values” oriented Corker with all its false innuendo along with interviews with both Ford and Corker here.
But hold on a secon, seems like Corkers family values are not so strong after all. His daughter Julia Corker has been doing a little partying of her own. Here are a couple of pics of Julia at a recent party.
I wonder what those god fearing, family values oriented Tennesseeans will think of those family values?
