CARLY for America, the super PAC backing Republican presidential hopeful Carly Fiorina launched a million-dollar ad buy Friday smearing Fiorina’s opponents as experienced, but ineffective.
The television and radio ads began airing Friday in both New Hampshire and Boston and will continued to run through Dec. 11, costing the outside support group a little over $1 million.
The radio ad, titled “Take Our Country Back,” tells listeners Fiorina is a “conservative outsider [and] leader we can trust,” compared to her professional political counterparts.
“Washington is broken and it won’t be fixed by candidates that have spent most of their adult lives in government. Carly will challenge the entrenched interests and break the status quo of Washington,” Stephen DeMaura, the PAC’s executive director, said in a statement.
The PAC has released several web-based videos and a 60-minute documentary highlighting Fiorina’s path “from secretary to CEO,” but this is its first major ad-buy of the 2016 cycle.
Meanwhile, Fiorina, who’s ninth in the Washington Examiner’s presidential power rankings, has previously said her campaign will hold off on developing its own ads until a late date, if at all.
“We are spending our money very carefully, because we have to go the long haul,” the former Hewlett-Packard CEO said in late October.
