Video: Despicable Jack Conway Smears Rand Paul With "Aqua Buddha" Ad

This doesn't quite rise to the level of Alan Grayson's "Taliban Dan" ad, but it is close. Jack Conway is running an ad trying to make Rand Paul look anti-Christian and anti-woman's rights. The whole premise of the ad is based on a college prank. The woman was a willing participant in what appears to be a kind of college ritual. This event happened over 25 years ago.

"The whole thing has been blown out of proportion," she told me. "They didn't force me, they didn't make me. They were creating this drama: `We're messing with you.'"

The woman said that much of the subsequent coverage of her allegations missed a key nuance: As a participant in a college ritual, where lines between acquiescence and victimization are often blurry, she was largely playing along with the notion that she was being forced to follow Paul's orders.

But that didn't stop despicable Jack Conway from taking the story and running with it in desperation.
