What do senators Bill Nelson, Ben Nelson, Sherrod Brown, Jon Tester and Claire McGaskill all have in comment? Each of the five Democrats are being targeted by American Crossroads, the new Republican Super PAC led by Karl Rove.

Via the Washington Post:

The conservative group Crossroads GPS is going up with the second leg of its $20 million advertising blitz, including targeting five incumbent Democratic senators and some key House districts with ads on the budget and the national debt.

After spending $5 million over the first two weeks of the campaign, Crossroads is spending another $7 million on network and cable TV ads and internet advertising starting today.

The national ad, called “Wake Up,” is strangely evocative of the “It’s 3 AM” Hillary Clinton primary ads of 2008, right down to the time on the alarm clock. The individual ads, on the other hand, are just the standard attack ad, although the ipad is an innovative touch.

Watch them both below.
