Democratic nominee Rob Quist

After their close call with a first-round knockout in last Tuesdays Georgia 6th District special election, national Republicans are sounding the alarms ahead of Montanas own May 25 special election for its lone House seat.

The NRCC has added $1.2 million in TV ad reservations, while the House GOP-aligned Congressional Leadership Fund super PAC is airing a new ad that attacks Democrat Rob Quist as part of an $800,000 buy. CLF tries to tie Quist to Nancy Pelosi, skewering him for wanting government-funded health care and supposedly supporting cuts to the defense budget, while they also hit him for his past debt troubles.

Meanwhile, Republican Greg Gianforte released an ad that warns Quist wants a national gun registry in a big government computer, which Gianforte claims could lead to federal bureaucrats [grabbing] your guns. Gianforte then fires a shotgun at a computer monitor flashing the word confiscate and destroys it, promising hell stand up for the 2nd Amendment.Gianfortes spot is hammering Quist over an earlier interview where Quist suggestedregistering assault weapons like one registers a car, a common-sense gun safety proposal that sends the NRA into a frenzy.

Can you give$3 to help Rob Quist to shock Republicans and turn Montana blue?
