It seems to dovetail off another TV spot that discusses how these &#8220;three men&#8221; forced the Legislature to ban abortion in all cases, except for the health of the mother. No exception for rape or incest. The &#8220;three men&#8221; made it happen.<\/p>\n<p>Now we see that theme being carried over to the issue of the electrical grid, which Coulda Been Worse LLC notes still hasn&#8217;t been fixed.<\/p>\n<p>I happen to like the ad. No surprise, given that I oppose the re-election of all three of the principals mentioned.<\/p>\n<p>My request to Coulda Been Worse LLC?
