      osama seem to be on the same side, with the same goals, using the same talking points.  How republicans are spreading Osama's message for him...FEAR.FEAR.FEAR

      I thought that was the point of the RNC (?) ad, to spend as little as possible on it but get free media publicity.

      It seems like KO is kinda doing what they wanted him (and everyone else) to.

      But if anyone can  break the spin away from the Repugs, its Kieth.

      I'll definitley be watching!

          I think the Dems should really go after them for using all this bogeyman fear crap. I'm surprised they haven't used FDR's quote more - "The only thing we have to fear is fear itself".

          And for that matter they need to counter the "Cut and Run" theme.  How about "Stay and Pay" or something like that... You either Cut and Run or Stay and Pay.

            I don't think most people bother following it.
            Not the ones that they're aiming for, anyway.
            I think a nice parody would be to replace the sound of ticking with snoring, and to have sheep jumping over the text.
