when you’re explaining, you’re losing

Jon Ossoff’s façade has come crumbling down during the final weeks of Georgia’s 6^th District special election.

Forced to go on the defensive over his bogus national security credentials and weak positions on terror, Ossoff has now released three TV ads essentially explaining how he isn’t the second coming of Dennis Kucinich.

Ossoff went as far as to add a lengthy new section on ISIS to his website and directed voters to it via his latest TV ad.

Via CNN:

• Democrat Jon Ossoff’s latest television ad has all the hallmarks of a politician put on his heels by his opponents’ attacks on his national security bona fides. 
• The ad features Ossoff talking straight into the camera. And instead of his own message, he is responding to one that a Republican super PAC spent millions to put on the air in Atlanta. “Let’s put this to rest once and for all,” Ossoff says as the 30-second spot begins
  .
• He goes on to denounce ISIS as “evil,” declare that “we have to stop them” and direct viewers to a beefed-up national security section on his campaign website. The website now features six sections — covering military funding, intelligence sharing, battling ISIS, fighting radicalization online and more — that weren’t there a month ago.” 
• At just 30 years old, Ossoff has made for a ripe target. He began the campaign touting his high-level national security clearance — though he has backed off his emphasis on the clearance after reports that he only held it for five months before leaving Rep. Hank Johnson’s staff. It’s led to endless attacks from Republicans who accuse Ossoff of inflating his resume.
