IN-02: New DCCC Ad Says Chocola Is Drenched In Big Oil
As we noted below, we were surprised when the news broke that the DCCC had left vulnerable GOP Rep. Chris "the Count" Chocola off its list of targets for its latest ad blitz. But the DCCC must have reconsidered, because it has now released a blistering new ad tying Indiana's soaring gas prices to Chocola's coziness with Big Oil and Big Gas. Election Central has requested a copy of the video, which we'll post as soon as we get it. For now, read the text of the ad after the jump.
Here's the ad's text:
Filling up these days can cost over 60 bucks.But that doesn’t seem to bother Congressman Chris Chocola.
Chocola’s taken over 43,000 thousand dollars in campaign contributions from big oil and gas…
…and voted against cracking down on price gouging three times.
Chocola owns more than 300 thousand dollars in oil stocks…
...and voted to give the oil and gas industry 2.6 billion dollars in tax breaks.
Chris Chocola: For big oil, not you.

I live here in IN-02. Chocola has already bought up $300,000 worth of ads. You couldn't watch a morning show around here without wanting to barf he had so many commercial spots.
