Dems 2010 Strategy Will Be to Blame Bush
The Lid/CQ Politics ^ | 4/6/2010 | The Lid

Posted on 04/06/2010 6:48:33 PM PDT by Shellybenoit

For those of you who enjoyed the 2008 campaign get ready because the Democrats plan on doing it all over again. According to Rep. Chris Van Hollen (D-Md.), the chairman of the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee, the Democratic party plans on retaining the change message for their 2010. Basically its vote for us, or its back to the bad old days of George Bush.

“This time we will make the case that supporting a Republican is simply turning back the clock to Bush economic policies, the same policies that got us into this mess to begin with......will I think put themselves clearly in the position where they represent the status quo and that the Democrats, while we have the White House and both houses of Congress, remain the party of change and reform.”

Dems 2010 Strategy Will Be to Blame Bush

You gotta be kidding me.
Well darn it. That technique worked a treat in VA, NJ and MA didn't it?
Let's just pray they use that plan.

Americans don't take to people who constantly make excuses and whine. This has already become a growing weak strategy.

It worked in 2008. Used in connection to freebies, it should work in 2010.

I hope they invoke Bush as much as possible; it’ll remind the electorate how far we’ve fallen since then.

Why don’t we just blame Lincoln or Washington. What the hell, anyone is better than taking the blame yourself.

the only way this is going to work is if they could miraculously distance themselves from the near past and the present... and they cannot... it is all theirs...

This clown forgets that under Bush we had low unemployment, leaders in Afghanistan weren’t threatening to join the Taliban and we had more job created than lost.

A return to the Bush Days might not be a bad thing given the current environment. we were in a official recession one year after Democrats won Congress.

I think that it will work. It don’t take much to fool the voters, just look at 2008.

Like the true Bolshevik's they are, blame EVERYONE else as you raise the heel of your jack boot.

I wonder who they will try to militarily execute to maintain power.

Time is getting short, wannabee's. Sucks having a country full of guns, doesn't it?

You remember. Back when you had a job?

Yes back to the Bush days pre-2007 before the Democrats took power. Back to the days of 4.5% unemployment, and tax cuts for all Americans! Doesn’t sound to bad.

So, we’re gonna remember the ‘bad old days’ of Bush, but our memory of this health-care sham will have faded?

I disagree. The blame Bush strategy worked last time, they know it won’t work this time. Instead, and we’re already seeing it, they will work to vilify the GOP. That’s what they used to hammer the health insurance overhaul bill through and that’s what they’re using in order to continue selling it to the public. They’ll keep hammering this along with putting down Palin, attacking Beck, and just spreading lies about how evil the “party of NO” is.

I would think so. On the other hand, Michael Steele might come out and make a statement: "Bush was pretty bad, wasn't he?"
