UPDATED: David Rouzer is pulling an old play from the GOP book in his latest TV ad bashing Democrat Mike McIntyre: The Nancy Pelosi smear.
The former Democratic House speaker's name is a four-letter word to Republicans and Rouzer notes how McIntyre voted with Pelosi nine out of 10 times and supported her as party leader.
The best part of the ad -- which is only running in Wilmington and not the more expensive Raleigh market -- is the title: "Codgers," a reference to the two old men on the porch talking politics. As others have noted, the two men are N.C. political ad veterans appearing for candidates in the 2008 and 2010 elections.
