National Review's John Fund posts a vivid
description of a TV attack ad seeking to unseat Senator Jeanne Shaheen (D-NH):
The ad begins with footage of Shaheen on the Senate floor echoing President Obama by saying, “if you like your insurance you can keep it.” An overlay graphic points out that Obama was given the “Lie of the Year” award from a fact-checking group for that whopper.
The ad then shifts to a local focus: It notes 20,000 people in New Hampshire have lost their insurance to date and that Obamacare exchanges offer only a single provider on the state’s individual market.
The ad ends with a zinger sign-off: “Next November, if you like your senator, you can keep her. If not, you know what to do.
Fund then quotes the
Washington Post's political blogger Chris Cillizza:
You have a very scary situation for Shaheen — and any other Democrat, which is almost all of them, on the record supporting the ACA. Get used to this ad. You are going to see it thousands of times — in various forms — before 2014 is over.
Golly, I hope Cillizza is correct. The dopes who advocated and voted for that wildly unpopular turkey need to be turned out of office.
