Democratic Sen. Mary Landrieu is denouncing an attack ad against her as being sexist because it shows her aging.
The ad, paid for by the Ending Spending Action Fund, suggests Washington has changed Landrieu, 58, over time and uses the age progression to illustrate that change.
Landrieu campaign spokesperson Fabien Levy called the ad "appalling." He said it's an example of Republican challenger Rep. Bill Cassidy and his allies distracting from the issues.
"It is appalling that Congressman Cassidy and his allies would illustrate the senator's age progression with a leading phrase that Washington has 'changed' her," Levy said. "The ad is as classless as it is sexist, and Congressman Cassidy and his allies should remove [it] from television immediately."

Dang. I didn’t mean “checks” either. I meant “cheeks”. I guess the jokes write themselves. LOL!
It’s proven that women don’t age as well as men, and get the vapors.
What does Laz say?
Do these people have dart boards they throw darts at for offenses against them? Step right up folks - pick your offense of the day. Your choice of 100 offenses!!!
Yes they do. Funny!
She used to be, twelve or more years ago. She was a lousy Democrat, but a good-looking one.
Yo Mary, the genital thing isn’t working anymore...
Well fortunately, Victorian era doctors discovered a procedure for treating the vapors.
Are you asking, would he give her the pipe she's been asking for lately?
She looks just like Princess Fiona, Mrs. Shrek.
GET OFF MY LAWN, YOU YOUNG WHIPPERSNAPPERS!!!!!!!!!!!
If they are waking up, I would say it is about dang time. We have known about this for decades.
Nsh, man.
She was always a moon faced, ignorant sounding y’at.
There was never anything attractive about her.
Are you talking about petticoats and hoop skirts or have I missed something?
...in those parts, she's known as "Babyfat"...correct thyself.
We have officially won the argument then.
Landrieu’s paid yakker doesn’t even deny the substance of the ad: Mary Landrieu has been in Washington a very long time and that experience has made her into a different person than the one they used to “know”. That’s a very effective message, and hard to refute since it’s obviously true. No wonder they want to change the subject.
She's simply trying to change the message of the ad from her growing Beltway-LA disconnect to one of sympathy.
Not sexist Mary—more like ‘sowist’. You know—the hog type.
