The Republican Attorneys General Association launched a television ad Tuesday ripping Kaul as inexperienced. The spot is the second ad in a $2.5 million RAGA ad buy in Wisconsin to help Schimel.

Kaul has been traveling around the state meeting supporters in person but hasn’t put up any TV ads yet.
