Scope and Contents

In the 1996 campaign ad for Tom Allen, scenes depicted Jim Longley as politically aligned with Newt Gingrich, contrasting with Allen's focus on local Maine issues. The ad portrayed Longley's dichotomy between his Maine image and his conservative voting behavior in Washington, with various segments showing newspaper headlines, quotes, and Longley's own conflicting portrayals, suggesting a mismatch between his public statements in Maine and his actions in Congress.
