FIRST LOOK - Crossroads airs new Pryor attack: "For more than five years, Mark Pryor has been Obama's rubber stamp, not a fighter for us," a narrator says in a new American Crossroads TV ad going up statewide in Arkansas today. The narrator cites the Democratic senator's votes on the stimulus, taxes, spending, debt, regulations and health care. The ad is backed by $440,000, Crossroads spokesman Paul Lindsay said.

MORE ADS POPPING THIS MORNING - Environmental groups target Ernst: The League of Conservation Voters is going up with a new TV ad this week linking Iowa Republican Senate nominee Joni Ernst to Sarah Palin and the Koch brothers. It's backed by about $450,000 in Cedar Rapids and Des Moines and is the first salvo in a "nearly $1 million effort" by LCV, the Sierra Club and the Environmental Defense Action Fund to support Democrat Bruce Braley, said LCV spokesman Jeff Gohringer.

- RGA hits New Mexico's King in Spanish: In a TV ad released today, the RGA hits Democratic hopeful Gary King over his tenure as state attorney general. It's the association's first Spanish-language ad of the cycle, said spokesman Jon Thompson, and is part of an existing buy on New Mexico cable and Spanish-language channels.

- Franken talks "rigged" financial system: The Minnesota Democrat stars in a new ad for his Senate reelection bid, which his campaign released today, focusing on his push for credit-ratings reform in the wake of the financial crisis. It is running statewide, said spokeswoman Alexandra Fetissoff.

GO TIME - "Primary day: The six big questions," by POLITICO's James Hohmann: "1. Will non-Republicans show up to save Thad Cochran in Mississippi? ... 2. Are the Baptists more organized than the tribes in Oklahoma? ... 3. Does Charles Rangel survive in New York? ... 4. Will Tom Tancredo hurt Republican Senate hopes in Colorado? ... 5. Do GOP establishment favorites win in three key New York House races? ... 6. What is Anthony Brown's margin in the Democratic primary for Maryland governor?"
http://go.politicoemail.com/?qs=746d99c0bcfa246b6480d30433e73970bc9d6ba771d988c0a237ec81c269df42

- "Mississippi's revolution may be just starting," by POLITICO's Alexander Burns, in Jackson, Mississippi: "The brimming activist rage over Cochran's efforts to win Democratic crossover votes this week has added an extra shot of determination to the insurgents' efforts. Feeling that they have been opposed at every turn by power brokers in Jackson, including every major sitting GOP official in the state, they are looking to the 2015 elections as the next chance to upend state politics. ... McDaniel's voters are openly incensed at the candidate's treatment at the hands of party leaders. Madison retiree Bobbie Jean Mullins, a former county bookkeeper who supports McDaniel, described the
Cochran-backing [Gov. Phil] Bryant as a 'very good Christian man, but I would have appreciated him more had he said, "May the best man win," instead of coming out for Thad Cochran.' As for Haley Barbour, Mullins said: 'I'd like to kick his tail.'"

- "Brown favored to win ugly Democratic primary in Maryland," by Campaign Pro editor Steve Shepard, in Greenbelt, Maryland: "[Attorney General Doug] Gansler has struggled to gain traction in the final days of a campaign that transcends Maryland; [Lt. Gov. Anthony] Brown would be only the third African-American governor elected in U.S. history. And with term-limited Gov. Martin O'Malley conspicuously mulling over a 2016 presidential bid, his legacy among the state's Democrats hangs in the balance. ... On that morning here [at the Greenbelt Metro station] last week, the two candidates stood about 30 feet apart, both clad in dress shirts with rolled-up sleeves, ties and dress pants. They
never greeted or even acknowledged one another."

TODAY ON CAMPAIGN PRO - "Shannon's momentum wanes in Oklahoma," by Tarini Parti: http://go.politicoemail.com/?qs=746d99c0bcfa246b31b8afac8e3235bf322bc8535f81e97e6ec143f73f1eeaa9

TODAY ON POLITICO - LIBERAL DONORS: COULD THE ANTI-KOCH STRATEGY BACKFIRE?: POLITICO's Kenneth Vogel and Campaign Pro's Tarini Parti report: "David Brock has a message for liberal millionaires: Don't sweat being called hypocrites. Brock, a former 'right-wing hit-man'-turned-top big money Democratic operative, is part of a behind-the-scenes campaign to convince donors it's OK to attack the Koch brothers for spending millions of dollars while doing the exact same thing for the left. ... Conservatives reject the notion that rich liberals donate more out of their concern for society than do their conservative counterparts like the Kochs. But Brock's pitch also isn't sitting well with some major
liberal donors and operatives, who worry the anti-Koch strategy could backfire big time. It has not yet been proven effective at motivating key Democratic voting blocs like unmarried women and minorities, and liberal critics also worry it risks undercutting more important issues, smacks of class warfare, and opens themselves up to hypocrisy charges."
