"The ad begins with text that says, 'Lindsay Graham has a secret.' Then, Andrews says, 'We've all heard the rumors about Lindsay Graham, the whispers that circulate around Washington, D.C., and South Carolina, that he has a secret, a part of him that he wants to keep hidden.'"
"At this point, the words 'He just comes out' appear in yellow, capitalized letters on screen. The ad then shows video footage of Graham saying, 'The Iranian regime is on its knees,' and then displays 'on its knees' in yellow all-cap letters."
"Andrews then says to the camera, 'Lindsay Graham is deeply and passionately in love...' The sound of a record scratch then interrupts the ad's music as Andrews finishes the sentence: '... with war.'"
Dr. Annie Andrews, a Democratic candidate for South Carolina's U.S. Senate seat, released a controversial ad suggesting that her opponent, Sen. Lindsay Graham, is gay. The ad features sexual innuendo and visual cues that play on Graham's statements, implying hidden aspects of his identity. It begins with the phrase 'Lindsay Graham has a secret' and uses provocative language and imagery to draw attention to Graham's political positions. The ad also critiques Graham's record on state issues, including infrastructure and education.
