PrepTest 75, Section 2, Question 7
Political advertisement: Sherwood campaigns as an opponent of higher taxes. But is anybody fooled? For the last 10 years, while Sherwood served on the city council, the council consistently increased taxes year after year. Break the cycle of higher and higher taxes: reject Sherwood's bid for reelection to city council.

The argument in the political advertisement is most vulnerable to criticism on the grounds that it
bases a crucial generalization on a very limited sample
fails to consider the possibility that something that is unavoidable might nonetheless be undesirable
mistakes something that is sufficient to bring about a result for something that is necessary to bring about that result
makes a personal attack on someone who holds a certain view rather than addressing the reasonableness of that view
takes for granted that a characteristic of a group as a whole is shared by an individual member of that group
