Coleman ad hits Franken for 'juicy porn'

The Hill’s Aaron Blake has the latest campaign ad from Sen. Norm Coleman (R-Minn.) – which attacks comedian Al Franken (D) for making “tasteless, sexist jokes” and writing “juicy porn.”

It’s the first time Coleman’s campaign has referenced Franken’s past lewd writings against him in a television advertisement, and suggests it's going to be a major part of the campaign's message.

Coleman’s ad again features a man at a bowling alley – the same narrator who was the star of Coleman’s last ad touting his work bringing a National Hockey League franchise to the Minneapolis area. In this ad, he’s joined by two other bowlers.
