The National Rifle Association has a new :30 ad airing titled "Imagine." It will run in Colorado, Florida, Minnesota, North Carolina, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Virginia, and Wisconsin.




Ex-President Bill Clinton said that Al Gore lost in 2000 because he was bad on guns. Plausible. John Kerry was anti-Second Amendment. So too is Barack Obama.
Hillary Clinton made sure we all became familiar with Obama's contention that working people are just bitter and cling to their guns and God.

In a different year, this ad might have more impact.

Nonetheless, it's smart of any organization, and in this case the NRA, taking a candidate to task over their record. Especially when so many voters are likely unaware of Obama's past.

Our New Approach to Comments

In an effort to encourage the same level of civil dialogue among Politics Daily’s readers that we expect of our writers – a “civilogue,” to use the term coined by PD’s Jeffrey Weiss – we are requiring commenters to use their AOL or AIM screen names to submit a comment, and we are reading all comments before publishing them. Personal attacks (on writers, other readers, Nancy Pelosi, George W. Bush, or anyone at all) and comments that are not productive additions to the conversation will not be published, period, to make room for a discussion among those with ideas to kick around. Please read our Help and Feedback section for more info.
