Britney's Prosecution Now Campaign Fodder

Jack Weiss (insert), a top candidate in the 2009 L.A. city attorney's race, is polling registered voters about rival Michael Amerian's role in unsuccessfully prosecuting Britney Spears for a misdemeanor after authorities discovered that she was driving in Los Angeles without a California driver's license.

"Amerian prosecuted singer Britney Spears for driving with an out-of-state driver's license. Normally, people get a ticket for this but Amerian tried to give Spears a criminal record. The judge dismissed the case and Amerian was criticized for using Spears to draw attention to his political campaign," operators are telling voters.
