So the NRSC has an ad up attacking state Sen. Kay Hagan, a Democrat, who is running to unseat Republican incumbent Sen. Elizabeth Dole.

Wait, wait, wait a minute… I though the NRSC didn’t have any money because Republican Senators were a bunch of disappointing skin-flints, according to National Republican Senatorial Committee Chairman John Ensign.

I’m so confused. Well, here’s something else to make your head hurt (via Real Clear Politics.):

I wonder, with beech volleyball off the tube for a whole two weeks now, is the Olympic theme really going to resonate? And if anyone took the whole, “we should really keep the third-party ads out of this race” thing seriously, this should just about put a nail in that coffin.

For those needing a flashback, the Politico has the 92/93 ad up that the DSCC put up in August:

Without taking a stand as to the message, I’ve got to like the DSCC ad better. North Carolina has plenty of old codgers talking politics, some of them even on front porches. While the Olympics are temporary, grumpy old men are an institution down here.

Is it me, or is this campaign getting sillier by the minute?
