Dean's new ad in Iowa...anyone know anything about it?

While trying to find the source of the new poll on CNN on another thread, I saw this in the transcript. Anyone know anything about it? Looked on the DFA site, but didn't see anything.

MARTIN SAVIDGE, CNN ANCHOR: Hello. I'm Martin Savidge in Atlanta. Due to technical difficulties for Judy Woodruff out there in Los Angeles, I'm in her place right now. We'll pick up as soon as that is fixed.

At this hour, in Des Moines, Iowa, six of the Democratic presidential candidates are debating on National Public Radio. Our Candy Crowley will have a live report on the face-off in the Iowa campaign later on INSIDE POLITICS.

And checking the Iowa headlines in the "Campaign News Daily," the anti-tax group Club for Growth has produced a TV ad attacking Howard Dean. The ad begins airing tomorrow in the Des Moines market and it goes straight for the jugular. "Howard Dean should take his tax- hiking, government-expanding, latte-drinking, sushi-eating, Volvo- driving, "New York Times"-reading, Hollywood-loving, left-wing freak show back to Vermont where it belongs."

Meanwhile, Howard Dean has launched his own new TV ad in Iowa today. The spot is running statewide and it highlights Dean's antiwar stance and his opposition to the Bush tax cuts.

1. Saw the pro-Dean ad today

but haven't seen the attack ad yet. Of course, I'm not in Des Moines, but it likely will run here soon.

3. Haven't seen..

the Club for Growth ad, but it sounds particularly lame. After the "tax-hiking", "government expanding" part it veers off into stereotype, non-issue land. I don't see how that ad would influence anyone.
