The road to Hell is
The road to Hell is paved with Republicans
Okay, what's up with this? This bumpersticker was on a car in front of me as I drove to work, and I'll confess to a lack of understanding. The Democrats are normally quite crisp on their messages (speaking truth to power, Bush Lied/People Died), but this is one of those that doesn't work for me.
I read it and think, hmmm, Republicans == good intentions. And then I visualize a giant steamroller, crushing those who would try to stop us from heading in the wrong direction. I'll leave it to you to visualize Ted Kennedy driving the steamroller, if you will.
This put me in mind of the "Re-Defeat Bush in `04" bumper stickers. If you thought you defeated him in `00, and he ended up as president, it seems to me the last thing you'd want is a repeat of that debacle. Oops.
