GOP Clash Over Ad
Update: U.S. Senate candidate Mark
Pryor of Arkansas has fired back at what he calls false accusations
in a Republican-sponsored ad that began airing the last week in
September. Pryor, who is currently serving as Arkansas' attorney
general and is locked in a close race with incumbent Sen. Tim
Hutchinson, says that an ad paid for by the state GOP and the
National Republican Senatorial Committee contains an outright
lie about his support of the Arkansas National Guard. Republican
Party leaders say they will stand behind the ad because it accurately
portrays Pryor's record.
