U.S. Senate candidate Bruce Lunsford The campaign of Democratic Senate candidate Bruce Lunsford has launched major defensive maneuvers to counter-act the attack ad launched against their candidate late last week by opponent Greg Fischer.

A letter from the Washington, D.C.-based law firm Sandler, Reiff, and Young written on behalf of "Friends of Bruce Lunsford" was fired off to every television station airing Fischer's 30-second attack ad today.

In the letter, Attorney Neil Reiff charges that the disclaimer in Fischer's ad does not meet the federal standards stipulated in the "Stand by your ad" provision of the Bipartian Campaign Act of 2002 and disqualifies the Fischer campaign from getting "lowest unit cost" advertising rates.

This afternoon, the Lunsford campaign also posted a point-by-point refutation of the charges levelled against Lunsford on its campaign website.
