Lamar Nixes Billboards Near Rep. Schmidt's Offices
by Last Night in Little Rock
The Democratic National Committee had a contract for two billboards near both of Rep. Jean Schmidt's offices in the Cincinnati area to criticize her for her comments about Rep. John Murtha for "attack[ing] one of our veterans for cheap political gain."
The graphic on the DNC's website shows the billboard as saying "Shame on you Jean Schmidt."
Lamar, however, inexplicably backed out of the contract just as the billboards were to go up, as discussed in an e-mail from the DNC to contributors to the billboard campaign because of the content of the billboards, already approved by Lamar, was determined to be "inappropriate."
