Schiff TV ad promoting GOP Senate rival Garvey is fair play

LA Times  

Republican Steve Garvey, left, is the target in Rep. Adam B. Schiff’s new TV ad. “All is fair,” said Garry South, a Democratic strategist who helped write the pick-your-opponent playbook more than 20 years ago when he worked to reelect California’s beleaguered governor, Gray Davis. She had planned to stay neutral in the contest, but said she changed her mind in part because of Porter’s “unwarranted pointed attacks” on Schiff and inference that the Burbank congressman was misogynist. Our telephones were ringing off the hook with people saying, ‘Just because she’s telling me not to vote for him, I’m voting for him.’” Schiff’s ad takes a similar tack, calling Garvey too conservative for California and noting he twice voted for Donald Trump — an invitation for Republicans to turn out on Garvey’s behalf and push him past Porter and Lee on March 5. The 30-second spot is factual and Schiff isn’t hiding behind an independent expenditure campaign or using “dark money” — that is, untraceable campaign funds — to pay for it.
