I think I saw a clip of paul ryan recently...
and he used the word "mandate". I think the Obama campaign should use that clip and show bush jr using the word as well. Not that it is a bad word, but I have only heard the rethugs get elected and brag how they have a mandate to do as they wish. We know how that worked under bush jr. We need to remind people of that.
