Anglides' latest ad

With six days left until Election Day, state Treasurer Phil Angelides has released the TV ad political insiders have been expecting for months.

The ad, titled "Twins", is a series of black and white images of Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger and Steve Westly, Angelides' opponent, embracing. The images come from the 2004 campaign for Proposition 57 and 58, when Westly and Schwarzenegger campaigned alongside one another.

The script is as follow:

"Steve Westly....Arnold Schwarzenegger called Westly his twin, because Steve Westly was his strongest ally, even while Schwarzenegger was cutting education, health care and aid for the disabled.

Even today, Westly and Schwarzenegger are the same on funing our schools. Both oppose closing corporate tax loopholes and asking multimillionarires to pay their fair share again.

California doesn't need another Schwarenegger twin."

With ominous music in the background, the ad depicts several images of the "twins" making public appearances together.

It ends with the closest of embraces: a hug.

See the ad for yourselfhere.
