Govs organization targets Patrick, Cahill in new ads

The Republican Governors Association, which helped knock down independent gubernatorial candidate Timothy Cahill's poll numbers with previous advertisements, is launching new ads in the race.
 
One of the two 15-second television ads faults Democratic Gov. Deval Patrick for wasteful spending and his refusal to rule out new taxes if re-elected.
 
In the other ad, Cahill is criticized for making the state's budget woes worse.
 
The ads follow Republican gubernatorial candidate Charles Baker's web ad that poked fun at Patrick, playing off a recent television appearance in which Patrick said he could not hear an anchor's questions.
 
Green-Rainbow Party candidate Jill Stein will also be on the November ballot.
