Anybody else find this Hagan/Flanagan/McLagan thing confusing?

Add in Ronald Reagan, Robert Kagan, Hulk Hogan, Fagin and a few women named Megan and you're all set for a Dr. Seuss book.

Update: Not to mention Dole spokesman Hogan Gidley...

Majority Action to air another ad

Majority Action will air a TV ad against U.S. Sen. Elizabeth Dole.

The liberal 527 group will spend about $115,000 to air an issue ad mentioning Dole's record in the Triangle, the Greenville-New Bern market and Wilmington, said executive director Bill Buck.

"We have reserved air time and will have an ad on the air tomorrow," he said.

He would not discuss the content of the ad until it is unveiled. The group previously ran a radio ad attacking Dole's record on mileage and gas prices.

The Dole campaign attacked Democratic rival Kay Hagan over the ad in a press release today.

"Two things have become crystal clear in this election: Kay Hagan is running as a Trojan horse for big labor, rich trial lawyers and liberal Washington insiders and she has no plan, no agenda and nothing positive to say about herself," said spokesman Dan McLagan in a statement.

Hagan spokeswoman Colleen Flanagan said she wasn't aware of the ad.

She also argued Dole was being hypocritical, since the senator had served as the head of the National Republican Senatorial Committee, which also runs outside advertising in Senate races.

"She can't have it both ways," Flanagan said. "Her job two years ago was to do this, now she's complaining that people are attacking her from the outside."
