On Tuesday, THE WEEKLY STANDARD first reported that an activist in Illinois tied to Senate candidate Alexi Giannoulias was working to recruit veterans to film a television ad attacking Senate candidate and 21-year Navy Reserve veteran Mark Kirk.

As it turns out, the Giannoulias activist seems to have been working with the Democratic Senate Campaign Committee, which unveiled its new TV spot this morning.
