In the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee ad linked below, the stock photo that they use behind Scott Brown when they discuss “Wall Street greed” . . . the photo is of the World Trade Center.

Politico: “A spokesman for the DSCC, Eric Schultz, said the image should not have appeared in the ad, and that it was being pulled and aired with a different image.”

Worst . . . stock . . . photo . . . choice . . . ever.

This isn’t a decision by Coakley, but sometimes campaigns just get snakebitten, and they just can’t seem to do anything right. This is a jaw-dropping, unthinkable error that will eat up another news cycle and reinforce the sense that the Democrats are panicked, desperate, and willy-nilly throwing anything they can on the air and hoping it sticks.
