'Nastiest ad?" Edwards vs. Vitter

Both Chuck Todd last Friday, and Chris Matthews earlier this evening ran that ad with, at least Chuck Todd, referring to it as the nastiest he has ever seen.

In it Edwards compared his call to serve in the military vs. Vitter's call by... prostitution.

I thought it was great.

The choice for governor couldn't be more clear: John Bel Edwards, who answered our country's call and served as a Ranger in the 82nd Airborne Division, or David Vitter, who answered a prostitute's call minutes after he skipped a vote honoring 28 soldiers who gave their lives in defense of our freedom.

David Vitter chose prostitutes over patriots. Now, the choice is yours.

Did Vitter call a Prostitute and miss a vote. Seems to me a factual matter of record. If the truth is ugly so be it.

Oh and fuck Todd, he would never call the ad nasty if you switched the D an R.

Did I mention, fuck Todd.
