Dems Ever-Changing Slogans ...


Dana Milbank's column today touches on campaign slogans ...

"Democrats have had more 'New Directions' recently than MapQuest. Among the party's campaign slogans this year: 'Culture of Corruption,' 'Culture of Cronyism,' 'Do-Nothing Congress,' 'Rubber-Stamp Congress,' 'Together, We Can Do Better,' 'Together, America Can Do Better' and, most recently, 'Six for '06.'

... By contrast, Republicans have settled on a single, unofficial slogan, which essentially says: Vote Democrat and Die. And in politics, scary and scurrilous usually trumps elaborate and earnest -- something Pelosi has experienced firsthand in recent days."
