The Senate Leadership Fund (SLF), a Republican fundraising group affiliated with Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.), on Tuesday announced a new $5.65 million advertising blitz hitting Democratic candidates in five battleground states: Indiana, Missouri, Nevada, North Dakota and Tennessee.
The media buy funds a new round of negative television, cable and radio ads hitting Democratic candidates who have posted surprisingly good numbers in red states in recent polls.
The group will spend $1.4 million on ads in Indiana highlighting President Trumps endorsement of Republican businessman Mike Braun and hitting Sen. Joe Donnelly (D) as somebody that says something when youre in Indiana and does something differently when youre in D.C.
An NBC/Marist poll last week showed Donnelly leading Braun by 6 points, a big surprise in a state that some Republicans are counting as a pickup.
Another NBC/Marist survey showed former Tennessee Gov. Phil Bredesen, a Democrat, leading his GOP opponent, Rep. Marsha Blackburn, by 2 points.

I am so tired of all the harm the GOP causes.
