I figured with all of the political talk going on I would post this. Anyone familiar with the name Lee Atwater knows what it stands for. The dirtiest most sinister political operative in the history of US politics and a protege to Karl Rove. He invented attack ads and smear campaigns and deceived everyone he met with his "good ole boy" southern charm. He was sick but not stupid and eventually it all caught up with him. You can thank Lee for 12 years of Republican rule from Reagan to Bush Sr. Unfortunately I can't find the entire documentary so here are some clips. Try to see it in its entirety, very, very good.
