A recurring point Democrats have been making of late is to note that a vote for Republicans is a vote for a return to George W. Bush policies. There are two reasons for this strategic line of attack.
A Democratic aide points out that the polling memo also contains empirical evidence that if the public is persuaded that voting Republican would be a return to Bush policies, it has a dramatic impact on voter attitudes:
If Americans believe that conservatives are espousing a return to the same economic ideas as those of the former President, the dynamic of the debate turns on its head. In two separate split sample questions, we tested President Obama’s economic plan against a generic conservative economic plan. When the conservative plan failed to mention President Bush, it handily out-polled the President’s agenda. When President Bush was inserted in the question, the Obama agenda easily won. In one split-sample, the difference was 49-points, in the other it was 23-points.
This is particularly pronounced among independents, the memo shows. It’s more proof that Bush remains a potent issue, and explains the current Dem strategy.
Keep hammering that point home.

Voting Republican would indeed mean returning to the Bush values. Values which landed us in this current economic crises. Values which deregulate the oil and financial industries. Values that prize corporations over people… Let us take our country back from such ‘values’
Reminds me yet again of the definition of insanity is doing the same things over and over and expecting different results. Do these people ACTUALLY believe the 8 years of the Village Idiot left average Americans in such super great shape? If they do then they’re as big of idiots as the Idiot Bush.
In their psychosis, the usual tired retort from conservatives when Bush is mentioned as the father of our current disaster is that the Democrats had congress for the last two years of his presidency and that they’re the ones that caused it.
They totally disregard the fact that pretty much those same people have been in charge of congress under Obama and have been fairly successful in saving the economy from disaster.

Every time a Dem is on TV debating with Rescumlicans they should ask them what they would do different from Bush.
You want to cut taxes for the rich. Right?
Then they should ask them how many jobs the Bush tax cuts created.
How many jobs did the Clinton tax hike create.
Ask any of those questions and you will see that stupid smile the Rescumlicans always present when they are called out on their stuptardidness.
