Kathy Griffin in a new GOP ad


New GOP TV ad features Kathy Griffin
BY ALEX ROARTY

WASHINGTON
A Republican Super PAC has found a new way to target Democratic candidates: Kathy Griffin.

A new ad uses the controversial comedian to criticize Democrat Jon Ossoff, saying her recent controversial actions are part of a pattern of behavior from “liberal extremists” who now support the House candidate running in Georgia’s 6th Congressional District.

And now, she plans to hold a press conference to whine about being bullied. She needs to stop ASAP. She screwed up, big time, and should just slink away before she does more damage.

Have you seen the ad? Images of Griffin, M. Moore, and black hooded anarchists smashing windows. Yeah, that will probably get the attention of the GOP base.

Is the Democratic leadership ready and able to issue such quick responses against Republican candidates? God knows, trump is giving us plenty to work with in the way of political ads.

And her planned press conference this morning to whine about anything will do nothing but backfire. She's an idiot. She fucked up and it's time for her to accept those consequences.

Such an outrage! Let's see it again!

So, there's no chance Barron couldn't see that commercial?
