Democratic Slogan: It's the Minimum Wage Stupid!

Republican Slogan: The Dems Think You're Stupid!

I also toyed with "Democratic Victory 2008, Because the Red Staters Didn't Pray Hard Enough".

Let's Try Spreading Democracy In America.

Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee Bumpter Sticker suggestion: "Make Lieberman Irrelevant, Vote Democratic"

Do You Miss Your Civil Rights Yet?

Hmmm?

I wanted to suggest this one to the Hillary '08 campaign:

Drive a dittohead insane - Elect Hillary in '08

Here's one for the DSCC that might work better:

Make Joe Lieberman irrelevant - Elect More Democrats.

That's my official entry. Here's one for the tiebreaker:

Clap Louder and Vote Republican.

Breaking the law should be a crime.

There's your winner, right there!

Really--had enough?

Dump Reid and Pelosi, get leaders leaders

We can't be Worse than he Was.

Vote GOP in '08', Mussolini would have!

It's Time to put the Grownups Back in Charge.

Seriously--you've had enough now, right?

D08 make breaking the law a crime again

DEMS:

Vote Democrat, it's GOT to get better

GOP:

Nowhere to go but up

Bushed?

Democrats: "How could we do worse?"

Republicans: "Terrorists smile when you vote democratic"

Republican: You think we'll allow an election?

Democrat: We're Republicans without spines!

For my money, nothing beats the existing, "Republicans for Voldemort" sticker.

/disillusioned democrat

For the Dems:

"You've done worse."

For the Reps:

"9-11, 9-11, 9-11, 9-11, 9-11, 9-11...."

My first thought was:

... because it's OUR country.

But I think this is better:

If this is the way the REPUBLICANS treat OUR country, tell them they can't play with it anymore. Vote Democrat.

Dems: Lesser of Two Evils

repub: "Vote Republican - Do as your told!"

If War is the Answer, what the Hell was the Question?

I want the terrorists to win, so I'm voting GOP in '08!

I don't need my rights, I am the Right! GOP in '08!

Rebuild our Communities! Democrats in '08!

If you like your neighbor, you better vote Democrat in '08!

And for the Republicans:

Cancel the election, declare martial law!

Democrats: We're not impotent, honest.

Republicans: The devil you know.

D: The Constitution - Not Just A Good Idea, It's The Law

D (alt): Vote Democrat [dem's donkey logo here] & Get the REAL Jackass(es) out of Washington

R: Better Red than Dead (how it pains me that this is so catchy....)

"Remember America?"

1) Christmas-Wrapped Fascism Sucks. Vote D.

2) Vote Republican: Cuz Thinkin' Be Hard Is?

3) Screw Interns, Not The Constituency. Vote D.

4) Have You SEEN Nosferudy? Heard Him TALK? He's F**king DISGUSTING! [Note: This one's for the swing voters.]

5) Tired Of Getting Rep'd In Yer Straw Poll? Vote D.

6) Mitt Romney once murdered an immigrant child just to achieve an erection. [Note: This one has very evident FOX News crossover potential!]

More as solicited...

Think DEMOCRAT this time -- or at least think!

Democrats:

Save the Republic. Vote Democratic.

Republicans:

Don't question authority.

I have that on my car! I have never gotten such a reaction from a bumper sticker. People are constantly asking me where I got it. (www.goats.com)

Democrats: Enablers of the GOP since 9/11

They made US start the war; Now We will finish it with victory.

Capitulation! We're afraid of W.

Tiebreaker:

Orange Alert!

America had a class war. 99% of us lost

Even their supporters don't like them. The litany of woes set out in the responses to this post is discouraging. Reading this, I would think that the Democrats were spineless, weak, cowards who are unfit to run this nation and the Republicans were strong leaders who will efficiently do what needs to be done. Just looking at the views of their base, it would be hard to imagine that Democrats had brought us so many wonderful reforms over the last hundred years. It's not so surprising that the right has been able to effectively label the left as weak. We do half their work for them by being willing to forget triumphs and attack every failure, perceived or real.

Here's my "bumper stickers":

"Security. Prosperity. Democracy. Vote Democratic"

"National Security and Social Security: Brought to you by Democrats"

"Lincoln was a Liberal" (okay, that's not really Democratic, but it's cool)

"Clean Air. Clean Water. Clean Elections. Democrats Fight For Your Rights".

"Build a Bridge to Tomorrow. Vote Democratic."
