The Bill Yellowtail ad (accusing a congressional candidate of beating 
his wife) played a big role in the Supreme Court's McConnell case as an 
example of an "issue ad" that was really a candidate ad. Is anyone aware 
of any article or other source giving any details on the nature of the 
ad, and whether Yellowtail offered any response to the charges?
Please reply off list.
Thanks!
Rick
