Karl Rove's Crossroads GPS attack ad links Elizabeth Warren and Occupy Wall Street

Check out what Karl Rove's Crossroads GPS has vomited up to use against Elizabeth Warren (and Occupy Wall Street—a two-fer!). It's the same old Elizabeth Warren = Occupy Wall Street = all manner of horrible thing that the Republican party has already tried. The difference is that this isn't an email or a web video. It's a $569,000 ad buy on Massachusetts television, intended to begin defining Elizabeth Warren as a crazy-eyed revolutionary in the eyes of the average voter, the one who doesn't tune in to elections until a month or two before.

Crossroads GPS, like so many right-wing organizations, keeps its funders secret, but reportedly "A substantial portion of Crossroads GPS’ money came from a small circle of extremely wealthy Wall Street hedge fund and private equity moguls." But they're attacking Elizabeth Warren for allegedly not focusing enough on jobs. They're shameless, you have to give them that.

This ad shows the importance that Karl Rove and Wall Street place on defeating Elizabeth Warren. If they're spending $569,000 now, think what that total will be 10 months from now. Warren needs our help to be able to counter the barrage that's headed her way. Please, contribute $5 to Elizabeth Warren (or more! No one would argue if you contributed more).
