FMA author (Fundy Musgrave) skewered in Colorado ads.
She's suing to get the ads off the air.

http://www.thedenverchannel.com/news/3784723/detail.html

The ad, airing on Denver stations, accuses Musgrave, a first-term Republican, of voting to cut $15 billion in veterans' benefits.

<snip>

The ad by Colorado Families First shows a pink-suited, blond actress portraying Musgrave picking the pockets of soldiers on the battle field.

Democrat Stan Matsunaka, who is challenging Musgrave, has said he isn't involved with the ad or an earlier one by the same group. He has said he fears a voter backlash against his campaign.


It's by far the funniest and best ad I've ever seen in a race. The other one, where the same pinked dressed prissy stole the watch off of a dead person at the funeral, I didn't see, but that one is about her voting against bannning nursing homes from charging families of their residents outrageous fees after they die.

Trying to find a clip of it, but not much luck yet.

3. Kick...still looking
The group is changing their name, and their website seems to be inactive, but they have the ad somewhere on there.
