Sestak ad agency wins award for anti-Specter commercial

    February 9, 2011

    Former Congressman Joe Sestak pulled out all the stops to unseat former U.S. Sen. Arlen Specter. And he’s being awarded for it. “The Switch” commercial ad has won a Reed Award for the “Toughest TV Advertisement.”

     

    The ad features video of Specter saying he switched parties to get re-elected.

    Sestak’s ad agency, the Campaign Group, also won ““Best Bare-Knuckled Street Fight Victory” for defeating Specter.
