By Eric Kleefeld - November 14, 2008, 2:58PM
Finally! It looks like national Democrats are really getting serious about pouring some resources into the high-stakes Georgia Senate runoff, a race that gives Dems an outside shot at another crucial Senate seat.
Here's the new DSCC ad, which hammers incumbent GOP Sen. Saxby Chambliss on the economy:
"For six years, Saxby Chambliss has been part of the gridlock that's hurt the middle class," the announcer says. "But now Georgia can have a Senator who will fight for the change we need."
The line about gridlock in Washington is a clear rebuttal to the GOP saying Chambliss is needed in order to provide a check on one-party Dem rule -- instead, more Democrats are needed in order to take real action. Consider that slogan something of a sneak preview for the ad campaigns in 2010, when the Dems will be working to knock off some notable GOP incumbents and potentially get well over 60 seats.
