It's not Morgan Freeman on the ad, which goes to show that some rudimentary fact-checking might be worth your while.

Even more hilariously, the article you linked refers to an ad by another candidate in another race in Wisconsin.

Even more hilariously, the article you linked refers to an ad by another candidate in another race in Oregon.

Oregon is Wisconsin?? Tongue

Swing state, woodsy areas . . .

I don't know why I did that.  I thought "Wisconsin" and wrote "Oregon." :S

Seems the Lawson campaign was conned - they had a contract from an LA advertising agency that often does celebrity commercials saying Freeman would do the ad.  Still, that's pretty embarrassing, and they should have asked themselves why Freeman would do a commercial for only $4500.
