Description | Republican Senate candidate Mike Taylor, trailing badly in the polls against incumbent Democratic Sen. Max Baucus, is dropping out of the race, a spokesman said Thursday.
The formal announcement, planned for later Thursday, comes less than a week after Democrats began airing a TV ad accusing Taylor of a scam involving student loan money when he ran a beauty school in Colorado.
Campaign spokesman Bowen Greenwood said Taylor believes the ad, which includes videotape of Taylor from the 1980s in which he is wearing an open-front shirt and gold chains while massaging a man's face, was an attempt by Democrats to portray him as a homosexual. |
