The web has no shortage of salacious videos—and a new one, compliments of the GOP, appears to depict a Democratic nominee for the Senate masturbating. Roger Ebert—who knows a thing or two about film—declared the video "vile!" but the National Republican Senatorial Committee insists its attack ad, set to steamy music and showing a bare-chested Ohio Lt. Gov. Lee Fisher in front of his computer, isn't sexual in nature, reports the Columbus Dispatch.
Factor in the double entendres—"He didn't get the job done," and "Dare to see more?"—and the undulating special effects, and, well, it looks as though he is, indeed, trying to get the job done. The shirtless image came from a documentary made by Fisher's son in 2006, which captured a tired, shirtless Fisher hunched over his computer.
