Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee Should Start Running Ads Right Now on GOP Obstructionism

If you click on the link in this entry's title you can read a report on how Bush plans to blame Congress for delays in enacting legislation. Of course this is ironic given that the reason more bills haven't made it to his desk for signature is because of Republican filibusters. As one Democratic Senate leader put it last week, "They are filibustering bills that they actually support." The reason for this is obvious, the Republicans want to make sure that Democrats are blamed for their obstructionism.

Instead of just bitching about their dilatory tactics, the DSCC should start running cable ads on the fact that Republicans are filibustering Democratic legislation. They should run such ads right now, on cable because it is less expensive and start making sure that the American people know which party is refusing to address the important problems affecting America.
