The Public Campaign Action Fund will begin airing a TV ad (see video above) in the Bluegrass State on Thursday spotlighting Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell's alleged role in an interesting kind of pay-for-play politics.
According to the colorful clip, the Kentucky Republican reportedly scored a several million dollar payback for a firm based in his state to send MP3 players to Afghani tribesmen. No word on what brand of device was shipped but the silhouette in the ad looks pretty familiar.
MacWilliams Kirchner Sanders & Partners produced the spot. The Huffington Post has more on the story.
