GOP targets Rockefeller

Over the years, U.S. Sen. Jay Rockefeller has made bipartisanship a hallmark of his behavior in Congress. He's been widely praised for his committment to bipartisan work as chairman of the Senate Intelligence Committee.
So how do the Republicans repay his constant goodwill and inclusiveness to them? By putting up a misleading, partisan attack ad:
Rebecca Fisher, communications director with the NRSC, said Friday her group had targeted Rockefeller because he is a Democrat "in a red state," where President Bush won in 2000 and 2004.
Fisher said the NRSC has also targeted two other Democratic senators up for re-election in 2008: Tom Harkin of Iowa and Mary Landrieu of Louisiana.
