Duffy launches radio, Web ads
Sean Duffy, a Republican challenging Dem U.S. Rep. Dave Obey in the state's 7th Congressional District, has launched radio and Web ads ripping the power House Appropriations Committee chairman for the federal stimulus bill.
"Obey told us his bill would create 3 million jobs, but since the bill has passed we've lost more than 3 million jobs ... and unemployment has jumped to over 10 percent," a voice over says in the ad.
"Now reports reveal the wasteful projects and special favors tucked in Obey's bill. David Obey's response? 'So What?!'"
Duffy, the district attorney for Ashland County, is facing a Republican primary against Rudolph farmer Dan Mielke.
