Credit unions aren't shy about having money to lend. Speed's outfit, the 126,000-member Texas Dow Employees Credit Union (TDECU), has been running TV spots since August and is doubling its ad budget for the fourth quarter. (At times, TDECU has been accused of being too aggressive: community banks, which have also been faring relatively well, and the FDIC loudly objected when one ad painted the entire banking industry as "under a dark cloud.") To meet loan demand, TDECU is borrowing from corporate credit unions and the Federal Home Loan Bank of Dallas, but even then...

"We are financial institutions without shareholders or Wall Street investors," the ad read. "The credit unions of Oregon are owned by 1.4 million regular people - Oregonians just like you."

...problem: the muted video used in the ads was actually taken from a heartwarming, funny story Franken told and acted out about David Wellstone and David's father Paul, who was killed in a plane crash in 2002 and whose Senate seat Coleman now holds. David, on at least one occasion, was sitting nearby, smiling as Franken acted out the part of his father excitedly urging him on during a cross-country race. Handed a gift, Franken's campaign produced an ad of their own showing how his image had been grossly distorted on Coleman's behalf - not merely...
