Listen, this has to be our mantra. For the past 12 years we've been labeled with all the wrong monikers by the Right, and we've just sat there and taken it.
We need to associate a new image - the image that's correct.
Prosperity Democrats vs. Cheap Labor Republicans.
This sums it up, and tells things as they are. Take this definition to the homes and backyards of America.
Remind every conservative you know that the Republicans do not want us to be prosperoud. Remind them that no Republican has had sustained growth, only Democrats. Reagan? Give me a break...every gain he had was wiped out to pre-gain levels within a year! Clinton, Johnson, and Kennedy are the only ones who can claim steady growth.
The Republicans want us to be poor, desparate and homeless - that way we will work for NOTHING.
The Democrats know that a prosperous nation, is a nation who donates to candidates. Prosperous small companies donate as well.

2. this is the madness in their doctrines of course.. |

"The Republicans want us to be poor, desparate and homeless - that way we will work for NOTHING."
work for nought and you have nought to spend with corporations owned by Republicans.
There has to be a sea change in the way you approach your opponents..I reckon you should start caling those that want cheap labor as 'anti-Capitalists'..they want to make labor so cheap there is no money to spend and Capitalism will be destroyed.
You have to turn these people's words back on themselves.

Prosperity Democrats vs Sweatshop Republicans. I think that "sweatshop" calls to mind a more accurate (and more emotionally powerful) image of what the Pubbies want than "cheap labor" does.

4. Love it but how can we get the Kerry campaign |
|
and the people who are out there speaking for us to pick this up and all the other good things we seem to come up with here? They could save a bunch of money if they would listen to us and not hire expensive ad agencies to do their stuff!

7. "Peace and Prosperity vs War and Poverty" |
|
The Demos always want Peace...
and conversly the Pubs always need war to line their pockets.
