Texas Rep. Henry Cuellar’s campaign is playing dirty in their fight against Progressive Jessica Cisneros by putting out slanderous attack ads claiming Cisneros is a “homewrecker” and wants to increase crime, eliminate the fire department, and eliminate oil field jobs. Cuellar’s corruption runs so deep that even though he claims to have nothing to do with the ad, he still has links to the company behind the ad campaign. Cenk Uygur, John Iadarola, and Francesca Fiorentini discuss on The Young Turks. Watch LIVE weekdays 6-8 pm ET. http://youtube.com/theyoungturks/live

"With early voting underway in a runoff that could end the reign of longtime South Texas Democrat U.S. Rep. Henry Cuellar, a billboard has popped up labeling his progressive challenger in the race a "home wrecker," the Express-News reports.
The Laredo billboard features the words "Jessica Cisneros is a home wrecker" stamped over the face of the 28-year-old immigration attorney who's challenging Cuellar in the May 24 runoff. The daily also reports that text messages sent from a now-disconnected number accuse Cisneros of "knowingly sleeping with a married man" and asking recipients to forward the accusation to others.
Both the billboard and the reported text message appear to reference a New York Post article from March that alleged Cisneros had a relationship with a 40-year-old married man — her former high school teacher — when she was in college.
In a statement to the Express-News, Cisneros accused Cuellar, a nine-term conservative Democrat whose district stretches from Laredo to San Antonio, of trying to bully and intimidate her."
