AD TAKES THE CAKE: From the New York Post

WHAT is sure to be a controversial new TV commercial features U.S. Sen. Chuck Schumer and GOP challenger Howard Mills standing together — as a gay couple atop a wedding cake.

The provocative ad--a copy of which was obtained by The Post — is set to start airing on cable channels across New York today.

The commercial, for Conservative Party Senate candidate Marilyn O'Grady, depicts two men, instead of a traditional bride and groom, atop a cake. The figures are meant to represent Schumer and Mills.

"They oppose President Bush on defending marriage and they support gay civil unions," says the narrator.

"Schumer and Mills: the perfect liberal couple."

Both Mills, an Orange County assemblyman, and O'Grady, a Nassau County doctor, have been running far behind Schumer in polls.
