FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Contact: Terre Lundy/Matt Harris: 216.889.2004, press@kucinich.us
The Bush re-election team has prepared dozens of commercials to undercut the efforts of the candidates seeking the Democratic Party's presidential nomination, including Ohio Congressman Dennis J. Kucinich.
According to a report in The Washington Post, the Bush re-election campaign "is sitting on a $100 million war chest," and plans an advertising blitz in about 20 states targeting U.S. Sen. John Kerry and U.S. Sen. John Edwards. Republican strategists have also "prepared a couple of ad scripts targeting long shot Dennis Kucinich," according to the Post story.
"If they weren't worried about the Congressman's chances, they wouldn't be bothering or spending money to attack him," the Kucinich campaign responded. "They're worried because they should be worried."
