Democrat incumbent U.S. Sen. Bill Nelson is seeking a third term in November but hes drawing fire from a conservative group which has launched a new ad against him.

On Friday, Americans for Prosperity-Florida (AFP-Florida), unveiled a new ad slamming Nelson and tying to him President Barack Obama.

Senator Nelson has been doing President Obamas bidding for years, drafting and voting for the $831 billion failed stimulus, the $1 trillion government health care takeover, and the botched $3 billion Cash for Clunkers program, insisted Slade OBrien, the state director for AFP, in a statement on Friday. Senator Nelsons policies just aren't working government waste of Floridians hard-earned tax dollars isnt growing our economy, its destroying it.

Floridians deserve to know the truth about Senator Nelsons policies, OBrien added. Not only did Nelson blindly support President Obama and vote to waste billions of taxpayer dollars, he also voted against lowering taxes, against a bill to stop more bailouts, and against American-made energy. When is Nelson going to start putting taxpayers first?

Starting Friday, the ad will be running across Florida for two weeks.
