Democrats Seeking 'Bumper Sticker' Campaign Slogan

Democrats Seeking 'Bumper Sticker' Campaign Slogan By Susan Jones CNSNews.com Senior Editor August 23, 2007

(CNSNews.com) - The Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee (DSCC) has announced a campaign to find the "bumper sticker slogan" that will carry it through the 2008 elections. The slogan also will appear on the DSCC Web site and campaign literature.

"We need a turn of phrase that really jumps out and tells you right off the bat what this election is all about," said James Carville in a message to Democrats.

Carville is credited with the famous phrase, "It's the Economy, Stupid," which apparently propelled the Clinton campaign to victory in 1992. (Less well known was the 1996 phrase, "Had Enough?")

In a message to DSCC supporters on Thursday, Carville said sometimes the best ideas come from people outside Washington. "Heck, come up with something good enough, I'll risk my own safety and put it on my wife's car," Carville said. (His wife Mary Matalin is a Republican and a former aide to Vice President Dick Cheney.)

The DSCC, a group that works to elect Democrats to the Senate, is urging Democrats to vote on its four suggestions -- "or create one of your own by midnight August 27."

The DSCC's suggestions include "W Is Out: Send the Right Wing With Him," "No Republicans Left Behind in D.C.," "What Have Republicans Done for You Lately," and "2006 Was Just the Beginning: More Dems in '08."

The DSCC suggestions are lengthy and have no rhythm or zip.

I suggest "Democrats '08: Sweet Surrender."

“Carville is credited with the famous phrase, “It’s the Economy, Stupid,” which apparently propelled the Clinton campaign to victory in 1992.”

How ‘bout “WE’RE TRAITORS WHO WANT TO SURRENDER TO AL-QAIDA AND SOCIALISTS WHO WANT TO CONTROL YOUR LIVES!”

Or “Never underestimate the power of stupid people in large groups — Dems in 08!”

The list could go on...

Bumper sticker slogan, eh? Well, I just saw an ad on TV
calling for us to stay the course in the war (”victory is
our only option” I think it said—maybe from freedomswatch.org) so thus the Dems bumper
stickers should read:

WE SURRENDER

Leftists can only think in slogans.

They don’t read and can’t handle new ideas.

“Vote Democrat! Why choose the lesser evil?”

“Democrats believe life is unfair—that’s why we work so hard to raise your taxes.”

“Democrats will never lose a war: We’ll just refuse to fight! Brilliant, isn’t it?”

“Democrat solution to unaffordable health care: Reduce quality for all so everyone can afford the same 18-month wait for treatment.”
