Democrats to be out in force at GOP meet
MINNEAPOLIS - Delegates to the Republican National Convention who are traveling into downtown St. Paul next week will be treated to a billboard-sized welcome from the other party.

The Democratic National Committee bought billboard space to display a picture of John McCain embracing President Bush with the message, "Does this look like change to you?"

"We're going to spend every day looking for every opportunity to remind voters in the Twin Cities and across the country that a vote for John McCain is a vote for George W. Bush and his failed policies," said Damien LaVera, a spokesman for the DNC.

That will include not just the billboard but posters on several bus stops that serve the Xcel Center in St. Paul.

(snip)

The Democrats also plan to distribute to reporters a multimedia press kit, which will include flash drives with an extensive catalog of McCain's record — histories of his votes, past statements and other material the Democrats want to highlight.

(end snip)

Heh, heh.

1. McPoopypants opened the door with his Powapalooza speech this morning
I hope he regrets this as much as he should regret being a republican.

3. Now THAT is a DNC backing up the Dem nominee and working every day to WIN.
Thank you Chairman Dean. You have been doing your job as steward of the Dem party with a diligence we Dems haven't seen since the early 90s.

4. The democrats gave America the Bridge to the 21st century...
Edited on Wed Aug-27-08 08:06 AM by Hubert Flottz
George Bush and the GOPs grand thievery/usury and the neocon "Drowning the Government in a Bathtub" ideology gave us the crumbled Bridge in the Twin Cities and the broken levies in New Orleans, while John lived the high life eating cake, ignoring reality and hugging a despot.

People who don't pay their taxes shouldn't be allowed to vote, or to use public property. McVeigh...err...I mean McCain voted for over 90% of the crap that Bush stampeded through the republican congress for six years and then he obstructed everything the democratic led congress did to correct the damage 95% of the time...when he even showed up to vote!
