If the GOP can say that the Democrats want to "cut & run", "don't have no plan for the country", and use other one liners that are cute and memorable then it only make sense to blame them for the rotten weather. Why can't the Democrats play the same game? You don't really have to prove it. Gore has enough ammunition for the whole party so that Joe American identifies the Democrats as wanting to do something about the environment. The GOP has helped by thinking the whole thing is a farce and that God will save the good Christians. The GOP has caused this whole weekend to be a wash (several others as well).
