Bill Ayers on GMA
Campaign Boogeyman William Ayers Talks to 'GMA'
Chris Cuomo Grills '60s Radical Bill Ayers

William Ayers, the 1960s radical whose violent history became a focal point in the 2008 presidential election, said today that the Republicans unfairly "demonized" him in an attempt to damage the campaign of President-elect Obama.
