Sources say Peter Schiff is set to launch ad campaign

The broker/pundit/Republican candidate for U.S. Senate is poised to launch his first round of television ads, sources say. The campaign declined to discuss the ad buy, saying it does not talk about strategy.

Schiff, widely praised for his showing in the first debate among GOP Senate candidates, has never run for elective office before and remains unknown to a significant percentage of the state’s electorate. It would make sense that he’d try to build on what Rick Green calls a “real and honest” performance last week.
