Another Provocative Tancredo Ad
Tom Tancredo will air another TV ad in the Des Moines market. It's just as blunt and graphic as his previous ad.
The ad starts with Tancredo once again stating he approves the message, "because someone needs to say it."
"Mother killed. Children executed," the announcer says. "The tactics of vicious Central American gangs now on U.S. soil. Pushing drugs. Raping kids. Destroying lives. Thanks to gutless politicians who refuse to defend our borders. One man dares say what must be done. Secure the borders. Deport those who don't belong. Make sure they never come back."
Tancredo boasted during the recent YouTube debate that the other GOP candidates were doing their best to "out-Tancredo Tancredo" on the immigration issue. But will another stark ad give him a bounce? Leave your thoughts in the comments section below.

Scariest Man to Ever Run For the Presidency.
This guy is so pathetic. You know you stand no chance of winning when "Other" is polling ahead of you.
I guess Tancredo felt the need to secure his hold on the racist and intolerant among us. Sad, sad man.
