Steele in MD (R) Uses Foley to get elected... Blames the Dems...

[Ioo]

So it is a simple ad... and I am paraphrasing

Steele: Do you have kids? I do. And I do not like to see that the politicians in Washington are covering it up and not protecting our kids. I don't care what party they are from."

It is not up on Utube yet.

1. What?

I swear to God these people have no shame.

2. Every one of Steele's ads have been touting that he's a

"Washington Outsider". He never, ever says he's a Republican and it's not even on the fine print in his ads. An uninformed voter - and God knows there are zillions of them - would assume that he is a Dem.

3. That's his "Scarlet R" strategery

GOes back the that article in the WaPo where he's quoted as saying so. Cardin needs to be more aggressive on Steele being ashamed to be a R in public and speed dialing Rove in private.

4. I'd love to get a bunch of

giant "Republican" stickers made and then plaster them all over Steele's campaign signs. Republican really has become a dirty word.:rofl:

5. Funny you should mention that

This week I have noticed that many of the repug candidates in my area are either NOT mentioning affiliation at all or putting a very small elephant in one corner of their posters. While I would never break the law, what I "want" to do is go around and plaster my very own sticker over their elephant. That sticker would be a BIG one of two elephants humping each other. Sometimes I wonder if it hasnt gotten bad enough that some illegality isnt warranted.:think:

7. Cardin's ads are very aggressive in linking Steele to bush

they show him speaking at the republican convention and say that Steele supports bush's war, agrees with bush's position against choice, against stem cell research. They point out that many of the pro-Steele ads are paid for by the republican party (the word republican is blown up and circled in red).

They don't say "Steele is ashamed to be republican" but I don't think they should. That would reinforce Steele's bogus claim that he is against both parties. They should link him to the republican party unambiguously.

8. The only one's I've seen linking Steele to Bush are DSCC ads.

Good point about haw Steele is dissing both parties, but, I think an ad pointing out his closeness with the Republic party juxtaposed with clips from his 'outsider' claims would be deadly.

9. The "Right for Bush, Wrong for Maryland" ads are Ben's

It looks like you and the Cardin campaign are on the same page! :D

The one with Steele speaking at the convention says something like, "Michael Steele wants you to believe that he'll follow his own convictions. What are they? And then they cut to Steele at the convention saying "the standard bearer of these convictions is George W. bush!"

The "He likes puppies but he loves George Bush" ads are DSCC.

10. Not giving the people of Maryland

credit for the brains they were born with.

I hope this steeeeele guy has to go to faux news where he'd be perfect cause he can't find a job anywhere else.

11. where's that Mike Tyson picture that was posted here? the one in

which he's wearing a STEELE tshirt?

why not just run that?

''Mike Tyson, 'I really want to rape her now', for Steele!''

you KNOW the pugs would run something like that, were the situation reversed
