Republicans don't win elections. They tear down the other side as TomP's recent diary explains very well here. Why? Because it works.
So a challenge for the DKOS community: what's the best negative branding strategy for Democrats to use against the three stooges: Mitt, Rudy and John? Remember, the point here isn't to be nice. It's to win an election.
I'll start with a few ideas.
Mitt Romney is a CORRUPT BOY SCOUT
Romney may look like a boy scout but he is also the candidate of big business. Do we really want to endure 4 more years of the same corruption that marked the last 8 years?
John McCain is an ANGRY OLD MAN WHO IS LOSING HIS MARBLES
The straight talk express is now more like the crazy train in supporting the surge. Plus he's older than Bob Dole and Ronald Reagan were; he clearly has a temper; and is really kind of scary.
Rudy Giuliani is a DANGEROUS LOOSE CANON
If elected Rudy will steer our foreign policy to the right of Dick Cheney while wearing a dress. The question is not who will Rudy invade. It's who won't Rudy invade? North Korea? Iran? China?
Your thoughts?
