General election flashback! The National Republican Trust PAC -- the conservative group that sank real money into a national ad campaign hitting Obama over Reverend Wright -- has just launched a new ad in the Georgia Senate race attacking Obama as a dangerous "radical" who is on the verge of "total control.""Barack Obama's just one Senate vote away from total control," the ad says, attacking Obama by claiming he'll pay to give illegal aliens citizenship with "crushing new taxes." (Actually, Dems are two votes away from the magic number of 60 in the Senate, but who's counting?)The ad -- a sign of the conservatism of Georgia's electorate if there ever was one -- also assails Obama over his "spread the wealth" comment and claims that a vote for Dem Jim Martin is a vote for "Obama's radical agenda." It implores that voters "stop Barack Obama."Rick Wilson, a consultant for the National Republican trust, says that the group will have spent close to a million airing that and another earlier spot by runoff day next week.
