Multiple, dishonest text ads for Dave Reichert now showing up on Bing, Yahoo, and Google
A couple of days ago, Suzan DelBene's campaign announced that they had discovered a dishonest text ad placed by Reichert's operatives, which was appearing as a "Sponsored Link" above Google search results.
The ad's description reads, "Dave Reichert | Leading Through Challenging Times - Learn How He's Fighting Wall Street" — which is a lie.
As I explained in my post on Friday, it's a lie because Reichert hasn't done anything to stand up to Wall Street. There isn't even a tiny, itty bitty hook he and his operatives could hang that claim on.
Well, as it turns out, the ad DelBene's campaign found is apparently just the beginning. We've now seen in the ad in multiple search engines, and what's more, we've found another ad, which is just as dishonest as the first.
The second one — which is running on Bing — reads as follows:
Readers, here's an offer: If you discover a new dishonest Reichert ad on a search engine that's different from either of the two found so far — and you take a screenshot of it — we'll let you guest post your discovery here on The Advocate. The first person to contact us about each unique ad will get the honor.
I've said this before: Reichert's entire reelection strategy is built on name familiarity and personal likability. That's it. There is no substance. All he is in Congress is another vote for the Republican agenda. He doesn't have any notable accomplishments to his name. He isn't an elected leader.
He's just a tall, handsome guy who holds the office.
But the 8th District deserves more than a seatwarmer. The 8th deserves somebody who will bring the values of This Washington to That Washington. In my view, there is such a person running, and her name is Suzan DelBene.
Unlike Dave Reichert, Suzan is running on her values and her experience as a successful businessperson. She doesn't need to fool voters to win. More importantly, she doesn't believe in resorting to trickery to get ahead, because she knows it's unethical and immoral. She would have been a yes vote for the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, unlike Reichert, who voted no and has offered no alternative. And she would have been a vote for the Restoring American Financial Stability Act, unlike Reichert, who voted no and has offered no alternative.
