The dems have moved on from the hildebeast. They’re behind obama and edwards. They really want obama, but edwards has some serious money behind him.

Just imagine how Fred! will cut either of those two to absolute ribbons on national television, radio, and internet. No place for them to hide, either.

Can’t. Wait.

Announce! Fred! Announce!

I’ll bet, if he’s as smart as we all hope he is, he’ll adopt that Fred! as a brand thing. It’s already gone viral. All he need to is appropriate it in his logos, promos, and print materials. But doing all this on the net is a much smarter, MUCH cheaper, and MUCH MUCH more effective way to go.
