"Republican ad makers will know what to do with this," what are they gonna do, say the same shit that they always say?

And why do their ads matter at all, when it should be about what Democratic voters expect from their representatives? Apparently, people in these circles believe that the only thing that counts in a democracy is who is more effective at lying to the population—seems like a great guy, this Sheinkopf.

"It'll be 9/11, times a million"

You can't do a little bit of socialism, like Roosevelt, because then the fascists could end up being right for once! Obviously we gotta do more of the neoliberal proto-fascism, that sowed the seeds of fascism, instead...
