Would we rather have leading Kentucky conservative Grizzly Bear or Kentucky's soft establishment teddy bear?
This is an ad from a political action committee called Commonwealth PAC in support of Republican Kelly Craft.
It criticizes Attorney General Daniel Cameron, saying he is soft in his opposition to President Biden's immigration policies.
Now, in response, Cameron notes that former President Donald Trump endorsed him rather than Kraft, even though Kraft served as an ambassador to Canada and ambassador to the United Nations in the Trump administration.
And he says it's flattering to be attacked because he says it means he has a strong lead.
As for the teddy bear image, Cameron tweeted, quote, The latest attack ad calling me a teddy bear is laughable.
Folks, you know me, I thought that bear that is the radical left's absurd agenda.
And I'm one.
Time and again join us in continuing the fight in quote.
