RNC's below-the-belt shot at Pelosi

She’s the 69-year-old speaker of the House of Representatives, second in the line of succession and the most powerful woman in U.S. history.

But when you see Nancy Pelosi, the Republican National Committee wants you to think “Pussy Galore.”

At least that’s the takeaway from a video released by the committee this week – a video that puts Pelosi side-by-side with the aforementioned villainess from the 1964 James Bond film “Goldfinger.”

The RNC video, which begins with the speaker’s head in the iconic spy-series gun sight, implies that Pelosi has used her feminine wiles to dodge the truth about whether or not she was briefed by the CIA on the use of waterboarding in 2002. While the P-word is never mentioned directly, in one section the speaker appears in a split screen alongside the Bond nemesis – and the video’s tagline is “Democrats Galore.”

Dear RNC: Good luck with the women's vote after this one!

Negative ads do tend to turn people off to the whole process, so they've deemed it to be the best way for them to go.

Can't really argue with them, either, they're certainly not going to campaign on their own records.

:nuke:

gee, the name seems so fitting, doesn't it?

or the name of a porn star. What were her parents thinking?

That view is supposed to be looking through the barrel of gun. It's even punctuated with the sound of a gun firing. They thought that was the appropriate frame to put around the Speaker of the House.

I don't know why there hasn't been a stink about that. It's incredibly irresponsible and inappropriate.

and they are playing to their "base"

i mean, sure the repubs have condi rice and a few other women... but you have to have someone to throw under the bus if things turn ugly.
