From the Politico story:
"Blue America PAC’s Howie Klein, who runs the blog “Down With Tyranny,” said his online readers chose to target Carney because he signed a letter with 20 other Blue Dog Democrats urging House Speaker Nancy Pelosi to support the FISA legislation. Klein said, making matters worse, Carney’s office refused to reach out to the netroots to explain his support for the legislation.
After initially supporting Carney in 2006, Blue America PAC abandon Carney because of the FISA issue and launched a district-wide ad against him. However, the original TV ad referenced Comcast and Comcast refused to air the ad. The new ad will strip the inclusion of Comcast and is scheduled to re-air for a week throughout the district.
The group will be also be advertising in the Washington Post tomorrow.
