Looks Like the Dems Suck at Merchandising

So, perusing through new Kerry merchandise I can purchase today... and I decided to check out W's merchandise as well.

Is it just me or are Republicans much more creative at marketing than Democrats?

Evidence, check it our yourself:
Republicans: http://www.georgewbushstore.com/gwb04store.htm
Democrats: http://www.kerrygear.com/

These are the officially sanctioned party merchandisers, just FYI.

I don't think it's you. I've always thought that Republicans had better marketing than Democrats. They sold the nation on Bush, after all....

So they can be even more filthy rich than they already are? And so little Bushists-Ass-Licking-Lovers can feel important by showing off the official propaganda gear? Heil Bush! Heil Cheney! *raises right hand*

the Dems couldn't sell an alternative to Dubya in the last election...it's pretty obvious they suck at marketting in some serious ways.
Cannot think of a name

Drying the sweat from your brow and the ball after you wash it. I'm not saying that isn't stupid, just what it's for.

Interesting that the side trying to paint Kerry as a man of privilage has things like golf gear for sale. The same party, with the Texan from Maine, had a yacht party during thier convention. But yeah, he's a man of the people because he can't pronounce things. They need a fist shaking smiley.

Wow, it's totally true! I'm so glad I picked the right side. We can market like none other! :p

Whee! Democrats suck at marketing! That means if they're elected, they get in by sheer intelligence and charisma alone. *sniff* I'm so proud! :D

I'm serious. And feeling giddy at the same time. XD

last time i put conservative stuff on my car the liberal weenies around here tried to scratch it off with keys and keyed my car, but it was ok because my dog "accidently" got out. well that and that car needs a paint job anyway.

anybody around here who puts up Bush stuff gets it vandalized, not that i should be suprised, instead of flying the US flag we have people flying the UN flag :headbang:

if anybody has any bush lawn posters here, they get vandalized or ripped out. if they have pins they get mocked, if they have bumberstickers they get ripped off and tires slashed.

its crazy, and my pop's a republican. lol. i dont mind kerry stuff, but if somebody was flying a UN flag id probably fuck w/ it. I dont mind kerry, but fuck the UN.

To clean the golf clubs and balls, of course. I gather you don't play the game?
