Congressional candidate David Mejias, the Nassau legislator and Democrat looking to unseat veteran Republican Peter King, opens his first broadcast ad this way:
“Fourteen years in Washington has really changed Peter King. He cares more about George Bush than he does about us..."
Trying to tie GOP candidates to Bush is a national party goal this season, of course. Will it work here?
See the commercial for yourself.

King's probably safe. I think he's seen as a maverick despite his cheerleading for Bush. The big advantage for the Dems is that Spitzer and Hillary will have coattails.
Wow Newsday showing a candidates campaign commercial. Talk about picking sides. This is even low for Newsday.
No. It won't work.
peter king deserves to be beaten. he's an imflammatory bush lackey who runs his mouth so much, it makes me physically ill to hear his voice.
perhaps he could come up with one intelligent, non incendiary statement or thought?
maybe if he got off of bush's lap and did his job, he'd be a better Congressman.
