Roy Blunt can't be serious.
After discovering his Blunt Brigade's first mock Old Spice ad while reading a Washington Examiner article, I came across a more recent Brigade video, both being funded by Blunt's Senate campaign, which uses the same method in an effort to attract volunteers to his campaign.
Now I would be the first to say that being close to four decades past the age these videos are supposed to attract, I can't claim to know exactly what young people are thinking, but having been a classroom teacher for 12 years and having interviewed hundreds of young peaple in the 22 years before that, I consider the idea that these will attract capable young intelligent people to work for Roy Blunt to be an insult to intelligent young people.
Of course, that may not be the kind the Blunt campaign is hoping to attract.

If it is aiming to attract creepers, I think it'll work.
I agree with anon 8:21, this ad is creepy.
They wanted to attract young people... so they made a commercial that used cheap equipment, and tried to mock the old spice commercial? what is the world coming to...
Notice the air brushed, photoshopped pictures of himself he's using in the ads? He looks 30 years younger. Is that a technique to attract younger voters or fool older voters into thinking that he's not been the epitome of the corrupt Washington insider for years?
GAG!!!! First off, the old spice commercials work because that guy is handsome and sexy. He can cook, clean, bake a cake, ride a motorcycle and dive off a cliff.
Who cares if a Blunt "warrior" can dial a phone? Sorry Blunt, but I will hang up on your youth brigade. And don't bother coming to my door either- my dog bites!!!
