Well, they asked

The National Republican Congressional Committee sent me (and other Townhall.com readers) an e-mail this morning, seeking our participation in an on-line poll.

2. Which Democratic Presidential candidate do you think gives Republicans the best chance to win the Presidential election in 2008?

I said Dennis Kucinich.

3. Do you feel the economy is heading in the right or wrong direction?

Despite the Market's bad week, I said, "Right."

4. What do you think is the most important issue facing America today?

This was a tough one; "War on Terrorism" or "Illegal Immigration"? I reluctantly chose war; what red-blooded conservative wouldn't opt for slaughtering our enemies by the bushel?

5. Do you support or oppose employer sanctions for businesses who knowingly hire illegal immigrants?

I looked for, "You bet your butt I do!" but had to settle for the more restrained, "Support."

But the most interesting part of the poll was the first question.

1. We are looking for clever, creative slogan that encompasses why Democrats are wrong for America. In one sentence, explain why it’s time for Republicans to regain the majority.

To get you thinking, here is an example of [a] famous campaign slogan:

Are You Better Off Than You Were Four Years Ago? (Reagan, 1984)

My entry in the sweepstakes?

Yeah, we earmark and spend your money like drunken sailors; support amnesty for illegal aliens; support bigger government; and take bribes from lobbyists, but, hey, we're still better than the other guys.

I wonder if they'll go with my slogan ....
