I came up with a nice analogy to rebut the GOP job report spin |

It's like you're a fashion model who gained 300 pounds since we hired you but you want to be rehired because you lost 30.

Just a great analogy; I love it!!!
When I read the "300 lb. model" part, I immediately thought of the fat suit worn by Gwyneth Paltrow in "Shallow Hal"! Would thirty pounds off that figure really make much difference? I don't think so!
Score a big 3-point basket for the good guys!
Go Kerry! Beat the Shrub!

But how could it be delivered… people might think that it being a “model” and associating that with being a female was sexist and weightiest (yeah PC can go on to being weightist) … but it would be great somehow brought into a stump speech… if Edwards is the VP and I am really hoping he is he could do wonders with it…
