Scope and Contents

In a 1994 political TV ad, Bob Barr attacked his electoral opponent, Buddy Darden, portraying him as self-serving and not in tune with voter interests. The ad heavily criticized Darden for raising his salary by 40% and supporting large tax increases, aligning him negatively with President Bill Clinton and emphasizing public dissatisfaction and financial imprudence. These elements were vividly illustrated with disapproving visuals and texts in the video.
