YOUNG HUNS -- GOP Sen. Kelly Loeffler, who is on the ballot in Georgia this fall, is out with a wild new campaign ad that paints her as “more conservative than Attila the Hun.” And then it depicts Hun grunting to a translator that he wants to “eliminate the liberal scribes.” Remember: Loeffler and Rep. Doug Collins (R-Ga.) are running in a special election, so it's been a race to the right. Watch the ad here.
Team Collins responds: “Kelly thinks conservatives are grunting, filthy, mass-murdering open borders atheist polygamists. She lives in a seriously warped palace with an odd view of the peasants.”
