Last year we had some good ones like the one for Dale Peterson of Alabama &#8211; though his gun-handling skills left a bit to be desired.<\/p>\n<p>The first really good political ad of the season is from <a href=\"http:\/\/www.rogerforcongress.com\/meet-roger\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Roger Williams who is running as a Republican for the newly created 33rd District in Texas<\/a>. This district is in the Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex of North Texas. Williams is a former Texas Secretary of State and a small businessman.<\/p>\n<p>I think the ad below is ingenious. It gets his message across very clearly about the Democrats but is still friendly given the herd of donkeys surrounding him.<\/p>\n<p>\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" allowfullscreen=\"\" frameborder=\"0\" height=\"345\" src=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/F6etfJgZQ7A\" width=\"560\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>\nSince this IS a gun blog, here is Williams&#8217; statement on the Second Amendment.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><i>I\u2019m a Texan, a lifetime NRA member, and a gun owner.
