"Run on W's record!": a nifty idea from "the Bush Legacy Project" (via Digby)

Several previous posts have emphasized my belief that Dems ought run on W's record - and make Republican opponents run on W's record.

Here's a wonderfully imaginative ploy to advance this goal (courtesy Digby):
For seven years, President Bush's allies in Congress helped push forward his failed Conservative agenda. This week, Americans United for Change began delivering "I’m a Bush Republican" buttons to all of the Republicans in the House and Senate today in advance of Bush’s Final State of the Union Address on Monday with the message: "your votes helped build his legacy; you should show your support for him by proudly declaring that you’re a Bush Republican."
...
On Monday, as cameras scan the House Chamber during the State of the Union Address, we’ll see how many Republicans – those who have voted for Bush’s policies on Iraq, the economy, energy and health care – are willing to put their lapels where there votes have been and wear a button with this simple message: "I’m a Bush Republican."
What a neat idea! Simple, to the point, inspired.

Stop the madness!

Got this site from a fellow teacher (now retired). Interesting site. I'll have to check on it a little more before I jump in to the fray.
