American VoicesPolitics ISSUE 46•41 Oct 13, 2010

In an apparent attempt to distance himself from the policies of President Obama, West Virginia Senate candidate Joe Manchin appears in his latest campaign ad shooting the cap-and-trade emissions bill with a rifle. What do you think?

  • “Just to be sure, maybe someone should ask Manchin if he actually knows how a bill becomes a law and what a metaphor is." ”

    Laura Brown –
    Store Manager

  • “The ad would have been more effective if he hadn't missed the bill and then driven off in his Prius." ”

    Ivan Barry –
    Patient Care Associate

  • “I love the idea of shooting things I don’t agree with. I’ll be right back."”
