Has anyone else seen this ad and, if so, did you get as big a kick out of it as I did?

If you can't watch it, it's a one-minute campaign ad shot like a trailer for a action movie, with voice-over to match.
 
It's a good ad to hurt Trump and hurting Trump is always patriotic. That said, I'm not sure vendetta is a good platform to run on for Congress. She's going to need to talk more about healthcare, women's rights and guns.

I expect this was her opening salvo to get people's attention. She succeeded. She mentioned healthcare and women's rights and how they're being endangered. I think they'll be concentrating more on those in future adds.
 
It's probably going to get her some attention and it should be a marketing primer, but it's kinda nonsensical. She's running for Congress, addressing Trump and settling scores? Is she going to float a bill to prosecute Darth Cheney? What has Trump got to do with it?

I think she knows that one midnight tweet from Donnie can make her campaign. Running for Congress (I assume it's for the primary??) against the POTUS? On something that DJT had nothing to do with! That's some chutzpah!

Seriously? If that was a male candidate would you honestly have the same comment?

You boys might want to reconsider your reactions. Just sayin'.

Is there a reason you felt the need to compare those two unrelated ads?

Simply that they're both interesting political ads. Nothing else. Not likely either of them will ever appear on any ballot I fill out.

She claims Trump pardoned Scooter Libby.

Entertaining, but not as good as MJ Hegar's ad. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zi6v4CYNSIQ

Well, duuuuh! Yeah, that registered but then I completely forgot it.

I think overall the idea is good. When Congressional candidates start right out of the gate with "this is about Trump" it's a good thing. The RNC is intentionally not sharing the Trump favorability data at the district level and the opponents have to rough-out a policy. Do you support the Trump and run the risk of the non-deplorables going to your opponent or do you criticize or disagree with Trump and run the risk of Death By A Thousand Tweets on a slow Tuesday when the big baby has nothing better to do?

The GOP thinks they have a chance in NM. The Dem goal should be to lure the big baby into a bullying match with Plame.
 
For people that don't remember, Bush commuted Libby's sentence but didn't pardon him. Trump pardoned him.

Like with Arapaio, Trump's pardons didn't get them out of jail or anything.
 
She seems like an "interesting" character from the little I've read here. Sounds like one of those grifters TBD used to talk about.
 
The Plame Affair was the single most obvious piece of evidence for everyone to see that the whole Iraq/WMD story was bogus or at least flimsy as ****.
