That way theyll continue to do those effective ads.

...that the party they used to serve is now rotten to the core and must not only be expelled from DC but rebuilt.

Too often we Democrats think that because we have the best policies, all we have to do is state them and we should win. But as Wilson points out, people decide by emotion, not policy. Get their heart, and their mind will follow.
That is how advertising works. That is why Republicans use it.
We must play hardball with our ads. We must use policy AND emotion.
