Reagan's Family Opposes Anti-Kerry Ad

During the next five months, we are likely to see some pretty nasty election-oriented television advertising. A spot comparing President Bush's war on terrorism to President Reagan's fight against communism has already drawn fire -- from the family of the recently deceased leader. A source within the family contends that permission was not granted for Reagan's image to be used in this commercial and that using this image implies an endorsement for this campaign, an endorsement that has yet to be given. The ad, which first hit the airwaves on Wednesday, was produced by the conservative group Club for Change.
