Outside groups, not just the candidates themselves, have played a huge role in the deluge of campaign ads in 2014’s hottest races. Here’s an example of how one of those groups weighed in on one big issue, Mr. Obama’s Affordable Care Act.
The group Tea Party Patriots created this ad saying that “Mary Landrieu cast the deciding vote to make you live under Obamacare.” But why stop with one Democratic incumbent when others also cast a vote for Obamacare – arguably the “deciding” one? Tea Party Patriots stamped out virtually identical spots pinning the label on Sens. Kay Hagan of North Carolina and Mark Pryor of Arkansas.
