Smarter Use of DNC $$$: "Deferred and Dodged" Ad Campaign
Edited on Wed Nov-01-06 10:53 AM by CorpGovActivist
Dr. Dean and the elite DNC "message makers" - for lack of a better term - should be carpetbombing the entire nation with an twin-engine ad campaign:

1. Deferred and Dodged Republicans. This ad campaign should list out all the high-ranking Bush Administration officials - notably, KKKarl Rove (who didn't even complete the college degree he used to defer) - who think they're somehow qualified to advise *any* President (let alone the Dodger-in-Chief) on foreign policy, military policy, or the appropriate projection of American "hard power" overseas.

2. Bled and Crawled Democrats. This ad campaign should showcase all the Democratic nominees for the House and the Senate who have served honorably - with candidates like Tammy Duckworth front and center. "We are not the party of 'cut and run,' Mr. President. We are the party of 'bled and crawled,' and we did just that - bled and crawled for our country. While you protected the skies of Alabama from a non-existent Viet Cong threat (at least on the days you bothered to show up for duty), we answered our nation's call to service'." (Narrated by Max Cleland)

That would hit HARD in staunchly pro-military regions of the country.

4. That's How Good Ideas...
... become better.

One person throws out a kernel - others improve upon it.

No DNC focus group needed.
