Okay. Why should I buy a book about how to convince a fictional family that used to be Democrats but voted for Bush to vote Democratic again? I’m not hearing a good reason. Fictional characters don’t vote. Well, I’m sure some vote, but in general, their turnout rates are even less than real people.
Suggestion to any other prominent Democrat hoping to present the “Democratic Party goals” to the public:
1) Please don’t try to sell it in a book. I don’t even care where the money eventually goes, you’re providing a cost threshold for delivery that’s anti-intuitive. I believe Joe Bailey may agree!
2) Don’t constantly blather about trying to convince fictional characters to believe in the Party. Is that how we want America to see the Democratic Party - as trying to solve the problems of fictional characters? DO NOT FOCUS ON THE USE OF FICTIONAL CHARACTERS.
3) Do not keep talking about how the party has lost the middle class. A - If you’re going to say it, prove it. B - if the last election discounts your “proof”, then stop saying it. C - realize that your words will be used as “proof” of this by others.
Okay, I promise, enough obsessing about this book. Schumer’s talk show circuit is almost done (I hope) and I won’t be hearing about the Baileys anymore. Of course, there may be a book about Senator Huck Toomer…

Hey, those fictional families that the republicans used in the last few campaigns seemed to be very effective in energizing their base. I just wanna know when the democrats will have the balls to create a family named: Tom and Jim Bailey.
