Anti-Carona Commercial to Air

Los Angeles County Sheriff's commander Ralph Martin, who is trying to unseat third-term-seeking Orange County Sheriff Mike Carona, has apparently made a huge cable television advertising buy so he can broadcast the following campaign commerical (Windows Media) into local homes.

The beauty of the ad--which uses as its capper the Weekly's own R. Scott Moxley's dogged reporting of Carona's ties to shady underworld figures (other than Jaramillo and Cavallo)--is that it simply states what's obvious to everyone (excepting those inbred rubes on the Orange County GOP Central Committee, of course).
