NM-02: New Teague Ad - Can You Believe This Guy?

This is the third TV ad for Harry Teague, the Dem who's battling Ed Tinsley for the Congressional seat in New Mexico's Second Congressional District. Tinsley's been running attack ads, and this is the Teague campaign's head-on rebuttal that's being aired district-wide. It's a powerful one that sideswipes Tinsley's attempt to paint Teague as being against gun ownership, and goes on to criticize Tinsley's troubling record on taxes and his shenanigans as a Washington lobbyist. I love the ending where the narrator asks viewers, "Can you believe this guy?" And then answers: "Ed Tinsley. Not for us. Not one of us." You can read the script for the ad below the fold.

Harry Teague is a True Blue New Mexico candidate. Please donate or volunteer your time to his campaign to help turn NM-02 from Red to Blue in November. This is definitely a race we can win.

"Wrong" 30 Second Script:

Harry Teague: I'm Harry Teague and I approve this message.

Announcer: Ed Tinsley's attack ads are just wrong. At eight years old Harry Teague went hunting with his father, starting a tradition of support for gun ownership. So why is Ed Tinsley falsely attacking Harry Teague?

Maybe it's because while pushing tax cuts for the wealthy, he also took $52,000 of our tax dollars to raise horses.

Or as a Washington lobbyist, he gave $120,000 to nine corrupt or indicted politicians.

Can you believe this guy?

Ed Tinsley: Not for us. Not one of us.
