GOP Robo-Calls Hitting Ayres Issue

Republicans are making robo-calls (automated phone calls) in key states that raise Barack Obama's association with William Ayers in harsh new language, the Politico reports. The latest in a series of calls claims Obama "worked closely" with Ayers, a former member of the Weather Underground, who "killed Americans." The call, and similar ones, appear to be taking place in Wisconsin, New Mexico, Virginia, Maine, Florida, Missouri and North Carolina. CBS News confirmed that the RNC is behind the calls. The script:

Hello. I'm calling for John McCain and the RNC because you need to know that Barack Obama has worked closely with domestic terrorist Bill Ayers, whose organization bombed the U.S. capitol, the Pentagon, a judge's home and killed Americans. And Democrats will enact an extreme leftist agenda if they take control of Washington. Barack Obama and his Democratic allies lack the judgment to lead our country. This call was paid for by McCain-Palin 2008 and the Republican National Committee at 202-863-8500.
