With just a week to go until the election, the airwaves are erupting with hard-hitting television ads, and in Tennessee the Democrats are charging that a spot paid for by the Republican National Committee constitutes racial fear-mongering against the Democratic Senate candidate, Harold Ford, who is African-American. The details of the ad hardly seem to matter — the curious issue here has been the reaction. Mr. Ford’s opponent, Robert Corker, has disavowed any connection to the ad, which he says was produced and financed without any input from him. The chairman of the RNC, Ken Mehlman, has also distanced himself from the ad.
