A Toss From The Left (No Shocker, More of the Same)

From Talking Points Memo:

The NRCC is complaining that a DCCC mailer, distributed at the last minute in today's Mississippi special election, makes a false accusation when it says GOP candidate Greg Davis offered to have his town provide a new home for a statue of Confederate Gen. Nathan Bedford Forrest, who later founded the Ku Klux Klan.

But contemporary news accounts appear to support the DCCC's claim.
