RICHMOND, Va. – In order to move “forward,” the Obama campaign reached backward on Saturday, trying to rekindle the magic of the 2008 campaign.
For the second time on Saturday, during his second official campaign rally, President Obama sought to push a new campaign slogan “Forward,” telling those gathered at Virginia Commonwealth University that the country can’t afford to elect Mitt Romney and move backward to the Bush administration’s “failed” policies.

You are SO correct.
Please note that the Democrat takeover in January 2007 was a direct result of their win in the mid-terms of November, 2006.
I remember when so many FReepers sat that election out, thus ceding Congress to Pelosi and Frank.
Now those same voters are in a snit because their guy won’t get the GOP nomination, and they’re planning to hold their vote again.
Shame on them, then and now.
Add to that the ones who thought Donald Trump should be the Republican nominee.
We have to vote as we are now the last best hope for a civilized world.
So, if anyone mentions Bush, just say, "REMEMBER JANUARY 3rd, 2007.... The DAY the DEMOCRATS TOOK OVER!"
That is absolutely AWESOME!!!!!!
Thank yo for sharing - I plan on using those talking points against the lefties I regularly argue with on other forums!!!!
Thank you again and again!!!!
Excellent post. Hope you have sent it to all the conservative talking heads: Rush, Hannity, Michelle Malkin, Levin, etc etc. Needs to go around like wild fire.
