Melissa Hart’s “No on 46″ campaign paid for a radio ad that referred to Ward Connerly as a “carpetbagger.” One man impersonating Connerly said he’d “gotten rich off this scam for so long.”
Putting the government out of the skin color business – what a scam!
The ad was scheduled to run from October 28 until November 4. After the Colorado Civil Rights Initiative complained, calling the ad deceptive, KOA-AM and KBCO-FM station management asked the ad backers to change it. Hart’s campaign has submitted a new ad. (Source)
As you may recall, Hart herself called Connerly a carpetbagger, a derisive term southerners called northerners who traveled south after the Civil War to establish order and to help freed slaves.
Vote YES on Amendment 46!
