… the one, the only, the Dale Peterson, candidate for Alabama Agriculture Commissioner. Here’s his advertisement, which Gail Collins wrote of in her latest column.
I don’t know much, but I do know you don’t fuck with this guy. He rides horses, he brandishes a gun, he calls his opponent a “dummy.” And 33 years ago he started Alabama’s first pre-washed blue jeans laundry facility in Opp, Alabama (I have no idea what that means, but it sounds awfully impressive). It’s actually the latest example of a seemingly qualified Republican (if you read his bio, he seems to know agriculture) damning himself with a unambiguously stupid advertisement.
