New Elizabeth Warren ad rips Todd Akin, but makes no mention of Scott Brown

Elizabeth Warren released a new radio ad this morning that seizes on the controversy over Representative Todd Akin to attack the Republican Party. But the spot notably avoids mention of her Republican opponent, Senator Scott Brown.

The ad plays a clip of Akin, a Missouri Senate candidate, suggesting women’s bodies during “legitimate rape” may somehow be wired to avoid pregnancy.
