If you live in Colorado, you'll be lucky enough to see this a few billion times between now and November 4.
Had enough campaign ads yet? If you live in Alaska, Arkansas, Colorado, Iowa, New Hampshire or North Carolina, buck up, because you're in for a real onslaught from everybody's favorite political villains, the
Koch brothers.
Freedom Partners Action Fund, a “super PAC” with ties to the billionaire brothers Charles G. and David H. Koch, will broadcast $6.5 million worth of advertising in six states in the closing days of the election campaign, officials there said. […]
The effort is among a late flurry of attacks by Republican super PACs, which raised millions of dollars through the end of summer after struggling for much of the election cycle and have been looking for ways to spend the cash.
As Markos
wrote earlier, Karl Rove is busy getting in this action, getting his commissions making sure that between now and November 4 it's nothing but ads on your tv. And they're paying a massive premium to do it, "spending $5 million more in the Senate battlegrounds these last two weeks, yet they're getting 10,000 fewer ad spots."
And they're the party of fiscal responsibility? The Kochs' Freedom Partners Action Fund has already spent $16 million on ads just since August. And every race they're playing in is too close to call—all that money hasn't moved the needle at all.
