Now, it seems that the father of the Dem's Tea Party opponent has accused the Aden campaign of killing the cat themselves for the publicity. The Arkansas Times, 'Arkansas Blog' reports today on this development. An mp3 file of the incident is included. Why an mp3 file? It just so happens that the Tea Party Congressman's fathers owns a radio station in the District and regularly comments on the story.
