Is this mocking us, suggesting that they are not even trying to get public support for such measures in a post- Citizens’ United world?\u00c2\u00a0 Even if you deign to advocate for “Keeping the Bush Tax Cuts”, is Bush the right spokesperson for the sell?\u00c2\u00a0 You know that if the election were held today, Obama would beat Bush in the election?<\/p>\n
