Oh, I see now. This youtube channel is hosted by Under The Dome by the Raleigh News and Disturber which is practically a wing of the NC Democratic Party. No wonder the pro Dole posts are being removed and the pro Hagan posts remain.

Hey, I made a post here in support of Elizabeth Dole and it disappeared, what is up with that?

Here's an article in the News & Observer about the ad, with the comments underneath. There are some pro-Dole, anti-Hagan comments still posted. I'll post them here and let's see if they get deleted:

Hagan, Dole campaign on 'godless' ad

Kay Hagan says U.S. Sen. Elizabeth Dole should be ashamed about her new ad.

"Elizabeth Dole is attacking my strong Christian faith," Hagan said in a conference call, reports Lisa Zagaroli of The Charlotte Observer.

She said she was particularly upset that at the end of the ad, her face is shown with a voiceover of a woman — not her — saying "there is no God."

Earlier Hagan’s campaign threatened legal action over the ad, which highlights Hagan's attendance at a September fundraiser at the home of an advisory board member of the Godless Americans political action committee.

Dole spokesman Dan McLagan said the campaign had no intention of pulling the ad, which is airing in the final days of the heated Senate race.

"Every word in the ad is true, the associations are all true, what the group stands for and wants is accurately portrayed, and the video of her is at the home of these two folks after she snuck in the back door," he said.

Dole's campaign said the ad was fair game.

"[Hagan] has got some gall after $18 million that her New York and Washington friends have spent attacking Senator Dole saying all kinds of untrue and ridiculous things and to now say 'oh, you can't talk about us and who we are raising money from,' McLagan said. "Heavens."

Please show my one vote that President Bush casted in the United States Senate?

You are just proving my point that you speak based on emotions...

Have you even read the 93% effective poll/report...
Dole was penalized for sitting on the banking and armed services committee, which if you are from NC might be important...keep on pandering to the ignorant masses with you Hagan talking points...

Lastly, no one brought up Hagan's religion in the ad...

I know she teaches Sunday school and she claims her family has been in the church for over 100 years...I respect that...but I find it ironic that should would even attend such an event, even after Dole's people made it public knowledge three weeks before...

Pander Pander Pander...

I'm really trying to understand how taking money from and meeting with atheists proves that in "fact" Kay Hagan is a "religious person"...

...Maybe I'm just confused as to what "religion" they're talking about...

No.

The DSCC's ads and Hagan's ads have pointed out the failings of Dole as a senator. They don't lie.

Is Dole rated 93rd in effectiveness? Yes.
Did she vote with Bush 92% of the time? Yes.

Facts prove those to be true. Facts prove that Hagan is a religious person.

The Hagan ads and the Dole ads are not comparable. Saying so - a common Republican strategy - doesn't make them so.

Hagan felt no remorse for her "93rd," yet Dole did not file a lawsuit. Again, I will cite a press release made public on August 26, 2008 from the Dole campaign.

"On September 15th, Kay Hagan is heading to Boston, MA to attend a fundraiser for her Senate campaign. What may surprise mainstream North Carolinians is that the fundraiser will be in the home of leading anti-religion activists Wendy Kaminer and her lawyer husband Woody Kaplan -- who is an advisor to the "Godless Americans Political Action Committee."

This ad merely points out that Hagan will do anything and collect money from anyone to win this race.

Over $18 million has been spent by outside organization defaming Dole and challenging her.

How come that is not an issue? Is North Carolina for sale...is so I would like to place a bid as well?

Plus, Kay Hagan knew the potential fallout of this event, yet her attempts to deceive North Carolinians did not work. I personally enjoy having "In God We Trust" on my dollar bills.

It is religious freedom that allows for that to happen...and that allows for people who do not agree with certain religions to not face persecution and death as might be the case in other countries.

People are using the emotion card on blogs across the country in an attempt to blow this ad out of portion.

THIS AD IS SIMPLE...THE DOLE CAMPAIGN IS JUST LETTING NORTH CAROLINIANS KNOW WHERE KAY HAGAN IS GETTING HER MONEY.

HAGAN HAS BEEN ATTACKING DOLE ON THE SAME LINES...WHAT IS FAIR FOR ONE IS FAIR FOR THE OTHER...GROW UP IF YOU DISAGREE...FACTS OVER EMOTION

Hooray! Liddy has finally shown her true colors. She has shown that she is happy slinging lies and unjustly and untruthfully attacking someone's religious faith.

At one time, I believed that Elizabeth Dole was someone with whom I disagree, but with whom that disagreement was on a political level. While I think her policies are wrong, I had no reason to question her character.

Now I do.

Throughout this campaign, Dole has had no positive record to run on so has attacked Kay Hagan's. Fine. Attacks are part of the game; it's what Kay signed up for when she began her run to challenge Dole. Kay has attacked Liddy's record. That's politics. That's what should happen. That's the purpose of elections. I disagree with Dole's policies, other agree with them. Fine; no problem.

Now Dole has taken the attacks to a shameful level. This ad maligns Kay Hagan as an atheist, despite the fact that Hagan is not. It trades in fear, venom, and hatred. It reminds me of something out of "1984". Well, it's inspired fear in me. I fear Liddy Dole. I fear her willingness to lie to get what she wants.

Yet, it's nice that she has released this ad and revealed herself to be nothing more than a pit viper. Thanks, Liddy.

I'm not. That's the one I used. It goes to Youtube but it says it's not there any longer.

Strange, still works for me. And the comments are all negative against Sen. Dole.

Ok doesn't work for me. That's not good. What are they saying?

This is one of the milder comments:

"why are these republicans always fighting with hate ..."

Action needed here again, Please join in!
