I was reading a summary of Karl Rove's speech to the Conservative PAC's annual convention yesterday and decided that Karl gave us a great line of attack for '06.
This was part of the Boston Globe's summary:
"Providing a glimpse into the GOP's line of attack for the 2006 midterm elections, Rove described Democrats as obstructionist and wedded to the past. "And that's not a good place to be in American politics," he told the convention....
I can see the Democrats turning this into a great stump speech, along the lines of:
"The Republicans say we're wedded to the past and they're absolutely right -- we are. Democrats still stand for all the old-fashioned values that made America great:
- The belief that the President of the United States and his subordinates should tell the truth to the American people.
- The belief that government funds should never be used to manipulate media coverage and spread propaganda.
- The belief that we Americans are all in this together and that, working together, we can build strong communities and a stronger country.
- The belief that hard-working Americans deserve to have their interests protected every bit as much as those in positions of wealth and power.
There's probably a zillion others but it's past my bedtime and my brain is fried...
