Signs of desperation

Republican negative smear ads are really scraping the bottom of the barrel. We've all seen the Harold Ford smear ad from Tennessee ('Call me'), and heard about Rush Limbaugh going off HIS medication on the subject of Michael J. Fox, but this I found in the Washington Post takes the cake:

ยท In New York, the NRCC ran an ad accusing Democratic House candidate Michael A. Arcuri, a district attorney, of using taxpayer dollars for phone sex. "Hi, sexy," a dancing woman purrs. "You've reached the live, one-on-one fantasy line." It turns out that one of Arcuri's aides had tried to call the state Division of Criminal Justice, which had a number that was almost identical to that of a porn line. The misdial cost taxpayers $1.25.
