A recent internet video ad created by Ladd Ehlinger for political action group Turn Right which features plenty of booty dancing and controversial statements has been labelled by some the most racist and sexist ad ever. The Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee released a statement condemning the ad which points its sights at Democratic candidate Janice Hahn who is running in a special election for retired California state representative Jane Harman’s seat.

The ad, which likens Hahn to a stripper’s ass, addresses Hahn’s alleged use of government funds to hire former gang members to become gang intervention specialists, part of an effort to reduce crime.

Both Hahn and her Republican opponent have condemned the ad.

Racist? Probably. Sexist? Probably. Just plan bad? Definitely.
