I included the wrong ad at first

As the author of a book on the history of the American political debate, this new ad out by the DNC makes me laugh very hard. I make the point in The Progressive Revolution that all the Republican ideas and rhetoric are the same ideas and rhetoric conservatives have been serving up for 230 years, but it's increasingly obvious that not only are their ideas and rhetoric really old, but their actual leaders and spokespeople are really old as well.

There should never be an image or video of Bobby Jindal (0.00 / 0)

without volcanoes going off in the background.

OK, well since you changed the video (0.00 / 0)

my Bobby Jindal comment is now out of context.

But since Jindal is still parroting the same old talking points, even though he's a newer face, the message is the same.
