Reid Ad Shows Angle Bashing the Unemployed

Via TPMDC, Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) is up with a new advertisement showing his Republican challenger Sharron Angle bashing the unemployed, calling them “spoiled,” for instance. An unemployed Nevadan then criticizes Angle for the remarks.

Angle has previously suggested that the government cut unemployment insurance benefits to get people back to work. And this week, a tape of Angle stating that she would have voted against the Hurricane Katrina relief bill, passed just after the hurricane devastated New Orleans, emerged. Reid and Angle remain close in some polls, but in others, the incumbent is pulling ahead.
