It's been a tough few days for Peter King. First, his smear campaign against me was
exposed in the press. Then his dirty tricks were denounced, both in the
press and by
leaders of the Jewish community.
Then things really took a turn for the worse for King - I began airing my first
television ad, which exposes Peter King's record as a reliable rubber stamp for George Bush. After all, Peter King is the man who says
"I thank God every night that [George Bush] is our President.
Given Peter King's famous temper and the fact that he's already gone negative, it wont be long before he's on TV, attacking me and distancing himself from his friend George Bush. I'll keep fighting to get the truth out and show the voters that King's rhetoric doesn't match his record.
No matter what King pulls from Karl Rove's bag of tricks, I won't back down. I will keep telling the people of Long Island that Peter King doesn't work for them. I need an army of volunteers to take get the truth out.
Please help! Visit my website to sign up to volunteer, or make a contribution to help keep my ad on the air. With your help, we can take back America and reclaim the American Dream!

P.S. Here's the text of my ad:
Fourteen years in Washington has really changed Peter King. He cares more about George Bush than he does about us.
King supported Bush's tax cuts for millionaires and rich corporations, while voting with Bush to cut billions for healthcare for seniors, veterans health and child nutrition.
He even says he Thanks God every night that George Bush is our President.
Had Enough? I'm Dave Mejias and I approve this message because Long Island needs a Congressman who's working for us.
I would appreciate your feedback on my first TV ad of this campaign. Any advice or suggestions for future ads would be greatly appreciated.
