That ad will soon be playing out across Wisconsin, blanketing the airwaves, brought to the state courtesy of the Republican Governors Association.
The RGA definitely wants to keep Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker around. The organization, which spent more than $5 million getting him elected in 2010, wants to protect their investment in the upcoming recall election.
The Republican Governors Association will begin airing an ad today that attacks the two leading Democratic candidates vying to replace Gov. Scott Walker in Wisconsin’s recall election. A 30-second spot uses an elevator as a metaphor to define former Milwaukee Mayor Tom Barrett and former Dane County Executive (aka “Madison liberal”) Kathleen Falk as tax-and-spenders who killed jobs. They’re not publicly disclosing the buy size, but the RGA says its substantial and they don’t screw around. [...] [T]he RGA will be the first to begin the “real” phase of the campaign – defining the incumbent’s potential opponents.
These are the big guns coming out to defend Walker. It's going to take an extremely united and motivated grassroots to beat them.
Help.
Please, contribute $6 to the Democratic Party of Wisconsin to recall Scott Walker.
