Realtor or politician? You decide

When I first saw this ad, I thought it was for some local politician running for state office. However, a few seconds further into the clip, it becomes apparent that this is an ad for a realtor.

There is something very odd going on here. We have a realtor, posing as a politician. However, Americans deeply distrust their politicians, and comparing your profession with glad-handing vote snatchers doesn't seem like a convincing sales pitch.

There is only one conclusion that we can reach. Realtors are even more unpopular than politicans. The thought behind this ad that the realtor profession will take a step up on the trustworthiness ladder if it implicitly associates itself with the vote-grabbing promise breakers living in Washington.
