Senate-hopeful Elizabeth Warren Targets Big Banks in First TV Ad 
-----------------------------------------------------------------



In campaign news, Elizabeth Warren has issued her first TV ad in her bid
to unseat Republican Massachusetts Senator Scott Brown. In the ad,
Warren paints herself as a crusader against the banking industry.

Elizabeth Warren: "For years, I worked to expose how Wall Street and the
big banks are crushing middle-class families. It just isn't right. I
stood up to the big banks and their army of Washington lobbyists. I
worked to hold them accountable. I led the fight for a new agency to
protect consumers — and we got it. But Washington is still rigged
for the big guys, and that's got to change."
