Paulsen challenger asks "WTF?"
Posted by: Eric Roper under 3rd District Updated: July 30, 2010 - 1:18 PM
Neither of the Third District congressional candidates are known for being particularly edgy, so Hot Dish did a double take this morning when we received an e-mail from DFLer Jim Meffert's campaign.
"NEW WEB AD - Pell grants: WTF?"
Whoa there, them's fightin' words. Well, maybe not. The video, which criticizes Paulsen's votes on Pell Grant funding, doesn't exactly delve into profanity: "So WTF? (where's the funding?)"
This is the fourth Web ad Meffert has released that consists primarily of text and ambient sound (top left, below).
