Former Yonkers Mayor John Spencer - a Republican hoping to challenge Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton, is running a television ad campaign that pairs Clinton's face with that of Osama bin Laden. The theme of the ad is an accusation that she opposed national security programs that may have helped thwart an alleged terror plot on U.S.-bound flights from London.
The ad shows images of newspaper headlines about the alleged terror plot, followed by photos of Clinton and bin Laden. It also claims that Clinton opposed the Patriot Act and the NSA program.
However, her adviser Howard Wolfson, said the ad was factually inaccurate.
