McConnell's Wife Slams Progress Kentucky in First TV Ad
By Louisville Public Media
In the first TV ad of the 2014 Kentucky Senate race, Republican Mitch McConnell's wife jabs a liberal super PAC for attacking her ethnicity. As WFPL reported last month, Progress Kentucky sent out a number of messages via Twitter attacking former Secretary of Labor Elaine Chao, with a focus on her race. The national backlash forced the group to eventually apologize, and in the 30-second spot Chao says that represents the overall tone of the campaign.
