Steele Fights Back Against Fox Ad

Michael Steele has found a very effective way to fight back against the Michael J. Fox ad which is being run against him in Maryland. Here's the script:

STEELE: I’m Michael Steele, and I approve this message.

TURNER: I’m Dr. Monica Turner.

Congressman Ben Cardin is attacking Michael Steele with deceptive, tasteless ads.

He is using the victim of a terrible disease to frighten people all for his own political gain.

Mr. Cardin should be ashamed.

There’s something you should know about Michael Steele.

He does support stem cell research, and he cares deeply for those who suffer from disease.

How do I know? I’m Michael Steele’s little sister.

I have MS, and I know he cares about me.

That's how you fight back the right way.

However, I've been wondering how Mike Tyson (yes, the ear-biting boxer) got involved in this race. He's been very actively supporting Steele. Now I know - this article explains that for five years Tyson was married to Steele's sister, Dr. Monica Turner. They met while Tyson was serving time in prison for rape. Not exactly a ringing endorsement for the good judgement of Dr. Turner.
