Pro-Ron Paul Group Runs Ad In Colorado, Praising Senate Candidate (VIDEO)

The Campaign For Liberty, a conservative activist group launched by supporters of Ron Paul's 2008 presidential campaign, has a new $350,000 ad buy in Colorado. The ad praises Ken Buck, a district attorney running in the contested GOP primary for Senate, for having returned their issues survey.

"Buck's a leader in fighting Obama's health care takeover, reducing taxes, and stopping out of control government spending," the announcer says. "Thank Ken Buck for championing conservative Colorado values. Urge the other candidates to follow his leadership and stand up for freedom, by returning their Campaign For Liberty candidate surveys today."

Gary Howard, communications director for the Campaign For Liberty, told TPMDC that the ad is not an endorsement of Buck, but is instead intended to promote their candidate surveys. "It's not a support ad or an endorsement ad, it's just based on our candidate surveys," said Howard. "And we want every candidate to answer our surveys. So as soon as another candidate answers our survey, we'll probably do another ad stating that."
