Ad ties Convicted Felon to Demo Candidate in Nebraska?
In a sign that the GOP may be concerned about one of its incumbents, the National Republican Congressional Committee released a television ad in Nebraska's 2nd Congressional District on Friday that ties the Democratic candidate to a convicted felon.

The ad hits state Sen. Brad Ashford (D), who is posing a strong challenge to Rep. Lee Terry (R-Neb.), for supporting the state's "good time" law, which is more than two decades old. The law gives prisoners a day off their sentence for every day they spend behind bars without violating prison rules. Nikko Jenkins, the subject of the ad, served just half of his 21-year prison sentence even though he reportedly displayed episodes of violent behavior while incarcerated. He is accused of killing four people in a 10-day span after his early release in 2013.

Don't know if I'd call that "desperate" Fit... Michael Dukakis and Willie Horton ring any bells?

Yes it does.

You have to admit, seeing a convicted felon that looks like that would most certainly influence some people to go out and vote.

There is a State Representative ad on locally where the former Jefferson County commonwealth Attorney , A Democrat, had released a convicted murderer early and He killed again right after getting paroled . Seems quite common event with the PC folks
