New attack ads hit the airwaves

Republican 2nd Congressional District candidate Ed Tinsley and Democratic 1st District candidate Martin Heinrich are the targets of new television ads from outside groups.

Here’s the new ad from the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee slamming Tinsley:

“Ed Tinsley likes to talk about federal waste, but millionaire restaurant owner Ed Tinsley helped himself to $50,000 in federal subsidies for his multimillion dollar family ranch,” the ad’s narrator states. “Obviously, having taxpayers feather his bed is more important than raising the minimum wage or paying his own employees a living wage, because what’s good for Ed Tinsley is bad for New Mexico.”

And here’s the ad from the Republican Party of New Mexico attacking Heinrich:

“It’s a disgrace. Martin Heinrich smears a decorated soldier and lawman,” the narrator says, referring to Heinrich’s recent ad attacking Republican opponent Darren White. “But it’s not the first time. Martin Heinrich refused to condemn an ad that called our American general a traitor during a time of war. And Martin Heinrich even promised to block funding for body armor, bullets and other critical equipment for our combat troops, unless they’re pulled from Iraq. We just can’t trust Martin Heinrich.”
