Shirley Golub's ad spawns more rubber chickens to wave in Nancy Pelosi's face

from the pen...

What Shirley Golub started in San Francisco with her primary challenge to Nancy Pelosi, calling her out as a political coward, is spreading all over the country. When Shirley put out her "Rubber Chicken" TV spot it got major TV coverage in San Francisco the same night, and there are now news wire stories all over the country about it.

Now in Oregon, Joe Walsh in the 3rd congressional district and Nancy Moran in the 5th have put out their own interpretation of the rubber chicken attack. It's as much a scream as the original.
