Meet Chris Coons, the Taxman. As New Castle County Executive, Coons couldn't find enough taxes to raise. In fact, he even petitioned the state legislature for new authority to levy even more taxes on items he couldn't tax before. Learn more about Chris Coons' tax schemes at www.coonsthetaxman.com

It’s about time that Christine O’Donnell started talking about Chris Coons. Her first two ads were stupid.
Very nice ad ... my only suggestion is that a little of the Beatles ‘Tax Man’ in the background would have been nice.
I like the concept. I am sure there are creative people on this site that could have come up with a better tag line, though.
Good one! Now,if there is only enough time!
Coons was sued in 2005 for using his position to harass, defame and intimidate an ‘enemy’.
“...falsely accusing [attorney Thomas S. Neuberger] of...violating federal court orders, unethical behavior and other wrongdoing...disclosing to the Delaware media that plaintiff was dying of a brain tumor and that it was causing him to act erratically. Plaintiff also asserts that the Individual Defendants discussed his private medical information with numerous other individuals and during county government meetings”

Methinks Ms. O’Donnell will exploit the truth (what a concept!) and eventually go for the jugular.
Can anyone say ‘the sweet smell of success’?
That is a great ad!
How many seconds of a music clip can use for free?
Now that is a good and fun ad. His record on taxes says it all.
Yes. There couldn’t be a better point of attack than this.
Even my liberal friends fall silent when I point out that all their leftist Dem pals in the Vermont state government want to raise our taxes, and that only the much hated Republican Governor Douglas’s veto stopped them from doing it.
Douglas is much hated, yet he was re-elected in spite of that, precisely because no one wants the state to go back into fiscal madness like it was in the 90s, before it was straightened out by the austerity measures of none other than . . . Howard Dean.
Good ad. They forgot to tack on the ‘I approved this message’ nonsense though.
I seriously doubt any conservative could get a rights release to use most pop tunes these days. Over the years the generally left wing rock crowd gives to the dims and when pubs even use music for the warmups to rallies the artists come out and pillory them. Case in point Heart condemning Palin for using barracuda.
This ad has the same theme as many trailers for horror films...a GREAT time of year for a political ad like this...fear the Taxman! Love it! (A tax on ‘911’ calls..? WTF?)

Nope, I highly disagree.... like I said the first two ads were just to reset in people’s mind who she was and now she is going for the jugular....some people on FR wouldn’t make it out of a a day running for statewide office, you tell who you are, then you point out who your opponent is then you point what you would do instead...1..2..3
BUT .........................
independent average citizens who make youtube videos can do it ..youtube may eventually pull it..but there are a lot of different kinds and creative videos on Youtube.

Looks like an independent expenditure, so it’s not required.
Great ad.

That was a hard hitting TV ad.
I love it.
After this election, RATs will know the stupidity of tangling with a “mama grizzly”. They will get hit so hard, they’’ be talking out of their shoes.
