* Republican congressional candidate Rodney Davis has a new TV ad attacking David Gill. Rate it…
* Script…
VO: David Gill simply isn’t telling the truth about Rodney Davis
But Gill is honest about one thing:
He wants to raise taxes to pay for a government takeover of health care.
On Obamacare:
GILL: “I don’t think that it went nearly far enough”
VO: On taxes:
GILL: “…we shouldn’t be allergic to raising revenues in this country.”
VO: David Gill. A true liberal.
Rodney Davis’ plan?
Repeal and replace Obamacare.
Keep taxes low.

Don’t lead any ad with George Ryan if you’re defending yourself. And the 80’s/90’s TV’s don’t exactly make you look like the modern candidate. Not very effective, especially with the sound off.

Bad ad. It tries to do way to much. It tries to be a rebuttal ad, attack ad, and positive ad all in 30 seconds.

Davis is as delusional the health care tea party protesters that shouted “keep the government out of my Medicare.”

our magician I was thinking the same thing on the tvs. I also wonder if the moving screen makes old people dizzy.

What part of “Obamacare” does he not support: pre-existing condition restrictions; not filling the Medicare Part D doughnut hole; insurance rebates for companies that are gouging their members; ya-da, ya-da, ya-da? Like Willard, he should be more specific about his objections, and about the perils of health insurance free-enterprise that has left millions of Americans uncovered, so many of whom are simply victims of disease or catastrophic health conditions.

Same old lie about Obamacare. The Act is focused on healthcare coverage by private sector insurance companies, not a “government takeover”. I wonder when it will stop working in campaigns.

walkinfool- Gill supports single payer. That’s a government takeover if I’ve ever seen one.

As long as I have people in my family with pre-existing conditions, I will vote *against* anybody, at any level of government, who threatens to repeal the Affordable Care Act. So I wouldn’t think much of the ad anyway …
But why is Davis going negative at this stage in the campaign? What are his polls telling him?

Yes, please repeal Obamacare. Force more people to the ER so the medical world simply raises rates that in turn raise your health insurance coverage costs. But my rates are low because my employer pays most of the premium you say? At what point does it become too expensive and more employers drop it? As if Mediciad and Medicare are not already single payer. Please.
