Harnessing the Web for Blue Team Advertising

So I predict another election of the Dems getting their butts kicked by the Pubs on the advertising front. The red team has a natural advertising advantage because they're already largely disconnected from reality, and their base responds to baser appeals. But it seems to me that the good guys could profit from developing, say, some kind of wiki to cull the best rhetorical/advertising ideas from web denizens. Ideas could be floated, tweaked, punched-up and voted on by web Dems, and the party could keep an eye on the wiki for the best ideas.

This needn't just be about advertising, either. Web Dems could put their heads together to think of the best way of handling the sophistical "job creators" locution. That's a tough one, because there's no real claim there, it's just a buzzword. It'd be nice if there were some devastating response to deploy each time the GOP dropped that crap into a conversation.

Well, jobs creators is a very strange verbal construct.
I mean, farmers are food creators and miners are gold and silver creators and artists are beauty creators. And workers in general are creators of one tangible thing or another, all more interesting than abstract jobs.
