The NRSC released a new paid digital ad today highlighting “Retread” Ted Strickland’s “mixed and spotty” record.
The ad features clips from Strickland’s painful editorial board interview with Cleveland.com and The Plain Dealer, including footage of fellow primary opponent Kelli Prather scolding Strickland and P.G. Sittenfeld for acting like children.
The ad references the 350,000 lost jobs during Strickland’s term as Governor as well as his work for a liberal Washington special interest group.
Cleveland.com and The Plain Dealer endorsed P.G. Sittenfeld for the upcoming democratic primary instead of Strickland.
