I'd be curious to see how the CPC attack ads will play into the next election. A couple of things.
1) They do have two viable targets (assuming that Trudeau is in the mix) this time around, with Mulclair and Trudeau. So they'll have to split the attack ads at two targets.
2) Unlike Dion and Iggy, people already know who Trudeau is. Dion was easy to pin the weak and crazy environmentalist tag on to. Iggy was also another easy target as although he was well regarded in Academic circles, he came off as too intellectual and out of touch. The "Just Visiting" tag was pretty easy to pin on him.
Trudeau, for as much he's tied to his family name is pretty well recognized across the board in Canada. For the most part, I think people have already tied opinions to him, it won't be as easy to sway those thoughts with attack ads.
