Americans United For Change, the labor-backed political group that recently launched radio ads linking anti-stimulus Republicans to Rush Limbaugh, has just announced that they’re expanding the Limbaugh ads to target GOP Sens. Jim Bunning (KY), Richard Burr (NC) and Mel Martinez (FL).

“Now the Obama plan goes to the Senate,” the announcer says, “and the question is: Will our Senator, Richard Burr, side with Rush Limbaugh too” –interrupted by Limbaugh’s “I hope he fails!” interjection — “or will he reject the partisanship and failed economic policies of the past, and stand up for the people of North Carolina?”

Chances are, Burr will stick with Limbaugh.
