Powell TV ad targets Cantor supporters!

Democratic 7th District congressional candidate Wayne Powell is taking his campaign to unseat longterm incumbent Republican Eric Cantor right into the living rooms of central Virginia Republicans.

Powell on Monday will debut his first ad of the campaign, scheduled to run district-wide, once an hour on Fox News during the Republican National Convention, which runs through Thursday in Tampa, Fla. . .

Cantor has a sizeable advantage in money and incumbency, but the 2012 election comes at a time when approval ratings for Congress are at an all-time low.

"I have yet to knock on a single door where the person answering is happy with what's going on in the Cantor-run Congress," Powell said in a statement released with his advertisement.

Cantor and Powell are scheduled to debate on Sept. 28.
