"Harold Ford Jr.'s newest add spoofs "Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous" to highlight Republican Bob Corker's tremendous personal wealth. 'Bob Corker lives in a 30 room mansion, is worth over $200 million, and owns six SUVs,' says the announcer in an upbeat tone parodying 'Lifestyles' host Robin Leach. 'As Mayor, he took three pay increases, while freezing the pay of Chattanooga's police and firefighters...As Senator, who do you think he'll look out for?'"
