I don't see any way you can say this isn't a Jew-baiting ad against Rep. Steve Cohen (D-TN). Too bad the CBC and Emily's List are backing the candidate running it. M.J. Rosenberg has more.

I should add as background that I know from a very reliable source that Nikki Tinker, the candidate running the ad, has said before large numbers of supporters that she planned to make Cohen's non-embrace of Christianity (i.e., he's Jewish) a key part of her campaign. And I'm given to understand that this aspect of her campaign is widely understood in Dem circles in DC.
