26. you should lessen your partisanship, it interferes with your thoughts
Since both the Republicans and Democrats are pro-corporate, people choose other issues to make the choice on - like working class people who support Bush for his TV image, similar to the way Dean supporters like Dean's newly created populist image.

"The point is that none of those things (Iraq, Gitmo, wingnut judges, $1.3 trillion tax cut) would have happened if President Gore had been allowed to take office. And none of those things would have happened under Dean, Clark, Kerry, or Gephardt."

And those are all things that most people either don't care about or have widely divergent viewpoints on. Most Americans DO agree that they want lower taxes, better services, and lower utility bills, and higher wages. Most Americans ARE working and middle class and know it. Most Americans DO support populist economic policies.

But hey, don't let my ideological rant interfere with your marketing schemes.
