Why Pay Pollsters When You Can Ask Me for Free?

Wow, the Dems really are unorganized and lacking of vision. For about a year their anti-revolutionary message to the American people was, "Together, America Can do Better." What, it doesn't motivate you? Well, you're not alone. The stupid slogan got jeers on and off Capitol Hill. Which is why Democrats took decisive action. [Via Roll Call]

Polling and focus groups helped Democrats come up with the "New Direction for America" slogan, sources also said. And they note that while the first theme fell flat, this one seems to fit all of the major components of the party platform this cycle. "Let's just hope this one sticks," said one Democratic staffer. "The last thing we need is more mixed messages when we're trying to win back the House and Senate."

New Direction for America? They had to pay people to come up with that slogan???

Here are some slogans they considered but rejected:

"We'll Fix What They Fucked Up"

"We're Both For and Against the War"

"Hey, We Can't be Worse Than the Republicans. Nobody Could be Worse Than the Republicans. I Mean, Really They're Awful. God, They Suck Don't They? Oh, We Didn't Mean God in a sacrilegious Way. And We Didn't Mean Suck Like Oral Sex. Hey, the Republicans are Corrupt."

"Vote for Us, We'll Give You Free Stuff"
