Brinkley on TV in 6th District

State Sen. David Brinkley, who is running for the Republican nomination in Maryland's 6th Congressional District, is airing the first television ad of his campaign Friday.

The 30-second spot takes aim at incumbent Rep. Roscoe G. Bartlett without mentioning him by name. "Our fiscal crisis was caused by incumbents -- our incumbent, too. Enough is enough."

Brinkley, of New Market, is running against seven other Republicans, including Bartlett, in the April 3 primary. The campaign said the ad will continue through the election.
