The Dems are beginning to roll out their campaign themes for the fall, and on first blush, they're headed in the right direction. Conventional wisdom says that the Dems need to remind voters of the direction we were heading in 18 months ago with the failed policies of the Rethugs, policies which the Rethugs will bring back if allowed. If it's simply a referendum on the incomplete Obama agenda as defined by deceitful Rethug ads, that's not good for the Dems.
TPM has a video that the Dems will use to begin to draw the contrast. It will tie the Rethugs to the extreme positions of the tea bagger "movement" (i.e., the far-right Rethug base). The 10-point "Republican - Tea Party Contract On America" is a list of extreme policies which are featured prominently in the video. We like the choice of the word "On" in the title "Contract On America," as in a murder for hire.
