The most ludicrous incendary ad's devised.
CFG ad's consist of nothing but personal attacks, never have substance. They just spout the weirdest stream of crap imaginable. It's like it's written by someone with Tourettes of the hand.
MoveOn is almost as bad, but at least MoveOn comes with data and usually contains an alternative policy.
Club for Growth was created specifically to destroy all non-hard right candidates and nothing else.

No I haven't seen them. New Jersey isn't really a hotly contested state so it doesn't surprise me that they aren't being run (or aren't being run frequently) here. This ad that I'm talking about is far from providing an alternative policy or any real data. Just an example of how not to do a campaign ad. I can't possibly imagine anyone being swayed by it. Of course, there's something to be said for ads that will mobilize your base and I suspect that's what both of these groups' goals were.
