Kohl-Riggs to run first TV ad over the weekend
Arthur Kohl-Riggs, the fixture of Capitol protests who’s running against Gov. Scott Walker in the GOP primary, plans to begin running his first TV ad over the weekend.
His campaign said the spot, which parodies the Dos Equis “Most Interesting Man in the World” ads, will run this weekend on Charter and Time Warner cable. It was also looking at buying airtime in broadcast markets.
The narrator in the spot says, “His beard has been known to cross party lines. Unlike opponents, he prefers to raise money from inside the state. Were he leading the state, it would never lose its way. He is the most interesting Republican in the world.”
The video features black and white footage of Kohl-Riggs in a black suit and top hat around the Capitol, shaking hands with supporters and performing physical feats.
“I don’t always run for governor, but when I do, I run Republican,” he says. “Stay honest, my friend. Vote Art for guv May 8.”
