A new radio ad from one of the Republicans hoping to challenge Rep. Jim Moran (D-VA) in November accuses the long-time congressman of being “corrupt.”
It’s the first broadcast spot launched by the campaign of Matthew Berry, who’s running in the upcoming eighth district primary.
The ad portrays a couple discussing a campaign mailer from Berry.
“Ugh, Moran, he’s corrupt and doesn’t represent anyone but himself,” one of the actors says. “Moran’s answer to everything is ‘more, more, more’ — more borrowing, more spending, more taxes and more government intervention in more sectors of our economy.”
Later, the other actor says of Berry: “He’s right on the issues and understands that voters like us are sick of politics as usual.”
The spot will air during conservative talk shows, a campaign spokesperson said.
On his campaign blog, Berry said the ad fulfills his promise to “wage an aggressive effort to unseat Jim Moran.”
“I look forward to continuing to escalate our campaign in the weeks and months ahead,” Berry writes.
Berry, a former general counsel of the Federal Communications Commission under the Bush administration, will face retired U.S. Army colonel Patrick Murray in the GOP primary, held on June 8.
