Description | Republican U.S. Senate candidate Mel Martinez abruptly ordered a controversial TV ad off the air Saturday as Gov. Jeb Bush and the White House intervened in an increasingly contentious race.
The disputed ad ran for about 24 hours in North Florida, and accused Bill McCollum of supporting a bill in Congress "granting homosexuals special rights." Martinez said he agreed to pull the ad because he was concerned it would make it harder to unite the Republican Party if he wins Tuesday's primary.
