    Not only is Karl Rove questioning John McCain's current strategy of outright lying in his ads, Fox News' newsreader/spokesmodel and RNC talking points-generator Meghan Kelly is giving campaign spokesman Tucker Bounds grief over it (via ThinkProgress):

    On Fox News today, host Megyn Kelly called out McCain campaign spokesman Tucker Bounds for the campaign's lies about Sen. Barack Obama's (D-IL) tax proposals. "I want to hold you accountable for what McCain is doing," said Kelly. "Has your candidate gone too far, has he stretched the truth with the voters?"
