A new series of television commercials by Stephen Harper's Conservatives paint Liberal leader Michael Ignatieff as arrogant, cosmopolitan, hypocritical and aloof. Pointing out that he was out of the country for more than 30 years, the ads say he is "just visiting."

Even if you disagree with the ads, do you think attack ads work? Or do they say more about the party that is paying for them?
