A new television ad from the 501(c)4 group Campaign Money Watch blasts Republican U.S. Senate nominee Bob Schaffer as "a war profiteer" and draws ties between Schaffer and big oil companies.

The new ad is part of an television ad buy of about $900,000 made by the independent group last week on all Denver broadcast stations.
