The attack ad category is very interesting but I suspect also very controversial.

It would also be interesting to see how many ads are identically shared between candidates of same party and how large percentage is unique for each candidate, and preferable being able to select them out (maybe a bit fuzzy so the difference is not just a few characters at the end that adds 2% uniqueness).
