Poll question: What Is The Most Overused Political Slogan Of The 2008 Campaign |
|
Edited on Wed Jan-23-08 05:28 PM by Magic Rat
Which statement lends itself best to a drinking game because it's used so often that it, itself, becomes almost comedic in it's overuse?

1. The word "change". No, not really a slogan |

2. As much as I like John, he probably wins this one, simply because he's been using it the longest. |

11. His is also the only one that is factually indisputable. |
|
There are questions as to whether tenure as a first lady counts as experience, and to some Obama represents the politics of absolute despair.
Ya can't really argue with Edwards' statement.

19. Yes, to some. Obama's statement is disputable. |
|
Edwards' father working in a mill is a statement of fact. The other two are disputable.

Almost every single candidate has used those words once or twice in a campaign.

16. I Vote For "Ready on Day 1" |
|
A beautifully meaningless phrase which recalls all the best slogans to come out of the 2004 campaign.
