Texas Governor Ad: Bill White Is Barack Obama

I thought this ad against Democrat candidate for Texas governor Bill White to be interesting. In 2006 and 2008, Democrats successfully ran against George W. Bush, even though he wasn't running. They ran against him in national, state and local races. Now, apparently, Republicans at all levels may find it effective to nationalize their local elections and run against Barack Obama.



In fairness to Bill White, he's no Barack Obama. He supports the death penalty and the Second Amendment, but it's pretty hard to be a Texan and not support those issues.
