Washington state Republicans are getting some publicity help from a higher source. The Republican National Committee sent out an e-mail to media today urging them to check out the Washington State Republican Party's latest attack video.

This spot goes after 8th District Democratic candidate Darcy Burner by painting her as inexperienced and inappropriate. It begins with a black screen and text that reads, "Darcy Burner is running for Congress again...with the same thin resume voters rejected in 2006." This comes just two days after her opponent, Rep. Dave Reichert, was listed by Roll Call as one of the ten most endangered incumbents in Congress.

The video then shows clips of her saying that the FISA bill that was passed in the House in August "completely sucks". It also ridicules her for suggesting that plans to fix the SR 520 Bridge are failing because of tax dollars being diverted into Iraq and that the tactical success Iraq surge is "essentially irrelevant".

At the end of the video, State Party chairman Luke Esser does a voice over asking for contributions to help spread their message about Darcy Burner in her race against incumbent Rep. Dave Reichert. For now the video appears on the WSRP youtube page.
