Can You Come Up With a One Liner that's a Winner in '04??
Saw a piece on the "What Happens in Vegas, Stays in Vegas" ad which has been the most successful ad of last year, producing tremendous results for Vegas. That reminded me of "It's the economy, STUPID"--and that won Clinton the White House because it was something even the most politically ignorant could get their minds around. In this election cycle the repukes already have their slogan: Waffle. Already hear morons respond about Kerry when interviewed as a "waffler"---if pressed, they have no clue why (gee, think that might have been put into their heads by the Bush ad machine??). Anyway, can you come up with a short phrase, a sentence or a word that could do what the above did for Vegas and Clinton?? If you can, I'm going to write the Kerry campaign, the DNC, liberal radio and anyone else I can think of----we need a punch line (America thinks in punch lines). Kerry has a whole slew of great ideas and attacks on Bush but John "ain't got no punch line"..........write one for him.

7. "What Happens in America, Stays in America."
Show the since-banned Dover photos of flag-draped coffins, bearing the remains of Americans waiting to be repatrioted.

Show the worst parts (hard to choose!!) of Chimpy's latest "news" conference.

Show the re-naming of the French Fry, and the pouring out of already-purchased-and-therefore-irrelevant French Wine.

Show the Dixie Chicks.

Show the "Moran" guy.

Show the WTC crumbling. Show the desperation, that horrific morning, on the Pentagon Lawn.

What happens in America, stays in America.

13. Here's some...
"President Bush...tear down that wall of ignorance!"

"Having experienced the horror of war close-up, I look forward to being your "peace" president."

"700 soldiers dead, 700 million dollars mis-appropriated, and 700 club addicted...numbers don't lie...short-sighted presidents do."

"Mr. President...let me direct your attention towards the enemy---his name isn't Clarke, Woodward or O'Neill, it's a man named Bin Laden".

16. pResident Bait-and-Switch - Who could believe him THIS time?
On a split screen, play the actual sound bytes of his most untrue campaign promises in 2000, maybe with visuals of just the opposite ("Uniter, not a divider" (show unrest - there are many instances), "Compassionate Conservatism (job losses, etc. etc.), "No nation-building" (headlines of Iraq war) - you get the idea.

Point out all the hypocrisy!

Demonstrate how Chimpy is the real flip-flopper, not Kerry.

(So much for snappy sayings! But at least include reminders of all the the hypocrisy & deceit)

28. I plan to get some bumper stickers that says
"A low or middle income person voting for Bush, would be like a Jew voting for Hitler"
"Con me once shame on Bush. Con me twice shame on me"
"Vote for a True American Hero. Vote for John Kerry"
"George Bush the Great American Manipulator"

19. I'm John Kerry, and I'm here for you.
He needs to play up his own compassionate side.

The country was misled with shrub's claim of being a compassionate conservative.

I think that John/Jane Sixpack are looking for someone whom they feel is looking out for their interests.

It's becoming more and more apparent that shrub doesn't.

We've been Bush-Whacked - No More - Kerry 04

I still like:

Bush lied - People died

Still the best is the side by side images of Bush at the elementary school in Florida on 9/11 and the WTC collapsing
"When America needed a leader, where was our president?"

Kerry's theme should be:

"Taking Care of People....Everyday!"

and "Taking Back the People's White House"

or "Taking the White House To the People."

that should do it...
