Armstrong launches commercials

CO-6 candidate Wil Armstrong launched two new commercials today.

In an email sent out to supporters on Sunday night the Armstrong campaign announced they were putting up "Career Businessman" and "Let's Change the Way Congress Does Business."

Both commercials are 30 second spots and are up on Youtube.

Both rely heavily on dissatisfaction amongst voters with Congress in selling Armstrong to voters. Whether that translates into Republican votes in CO-6 remains to be seen.

In our opinion they'll be ineffective.

Generally speaking, CO-6 voters, especially Republicans, have felt they've gotten pretty good representation from outgoing US Rep. Tom Tancredo.

And while other politicians have fallen into disrepute, Coffman seems pretty popular to us.

So unless Wil is going to ratchet up the personal attacks on Coffman, we think his campaign strategy will fall flat.

That is, if this is all he's got.
