Poor choice of words leads to being bitten on the ass

The National Republican Campaign Committee has recently released multiple attack ads on US Democratic Senator John Murtha. In an interview, Murtha stated that there were "racists" in western Pennsylvania. He goes on to say that many people there were "rednecks." Although Murtha apologized for his comments made the day before, the impact on western Pennsylvanians was still great. Murtha had also stated in a previous interview that he predicted that Obama would win Pennsylvania in the election but it would be with little help from the western part of the state, including a portion of the state that he represented.

Murtha's public announcement of these predictions and beliefs proved to bite him on the ass as the National Republican Campaign Committee opened fire on this Democratic Senator.
