Scott Walker Recall: Dems Release First Ad, Compare Gov To Richard Nixon

[NJMaverick]

WASHINGTON -- The Wisconsin Democratic Party is out with its first ad in the campaign to recall Gov. Scott Walker ®, comparing the governor to former President Richard Nixon.

The ad centers on the John Doe investigation -- dubbed "Walkergate" by Democrats -- that has already resulted in charges against six of Walker's top aides. The probe by the Milwaukee County district attorney’s office is reportedly focusing on whether staffers who worked for Walker did political work with taxpayer money. Walker previously served as Milwaukee County executive.

The ad compares Walkergate to Watergate, putting images of Walker next to footage of Nixon and the infamous corruption scandal of the 1970s.

Taken aback by the abrupt ending to the ad but it is effective that way, ending with the Nixonian question.
