We’ll see if this works. Heck, if Republicans can attack Democrats for adopting their own programs – Cap and Trade (Reagan and Bush 41 administrations), the individual mandate (Republican alternative to “Hillarycare” and its “employer mandate”), and even supposed “death panels” (see here for more on that one) – then I suppose we can attack them for raising taxes! Ah, politics, ain’t it grand? 🙂
P.S. Tom Perriello has an ad along the same lines, see after the “fold.”
