The Democratic National Committee has a new cable TV ad up that brings back the image of the man that Dems have tried to use as their great bogeyman: Former President George W. Bush.
“This fall, America faces a big choice,” the narrator says. “Do we continue to move forward like Democrats are doing: Investing in education for every child, manufacturing right here at home, clean energy powering a new economy. Do we put Main Street ahead of Wall Street? Do we hold big business accountable when they’ve gone too far? Or do we go back to the same Republican policies that got us into this mess?”
The ad then shows old video of a verbally bumbling Bush: “You fool me, you can’t get fooled again.”
The announcer then says: “This fall, our choice is clear.”
