Republican candidate Carly Fiorina has a new ad in the California Senate race, with an especially bleak attack against incumbent Democratic Sen. Barbara Boxer: California is a hopeless wasteland, populated by indigent people trudging through a Steinbeckian dust bowl with no jobs in sight — and it’s all Boxer’s fault.

“Barbara Boxer failed to protect California jobs,” the announcer says. “Praises the stimulus plan, while two-and-a-quarter million Californians are unemployed. Trillions in deficits, billions in taxes. Our hopes crushed by Washington. The legacy of Barbara Boxer.

“We can change Washington. But not unless we change the people we send there.”

The TPM Poll Average gives Boxer a lead of 47.0%-43.3%.
