The Republican National Committee just released a new ad that viciously attacks Barack Obama for - get this - the Paulson Plunder!

Apart from calling it Barack Obama's plan instead of Paulson's Plunder, every word of the ad is true. It will cost $1 trillion. And you (and I) will pay for it through new taxes, new spending, and new debt.

And for those policy reasons alone, Democrats should defeat the Paulson Plunder. But if policy isn't enough, what about the raw politics of blaming Obama for Paulson's Plunder? If Republicans are going to attack Obama for supporting the plan, then he damn well should oppose it - as should every single Democrat.

Meltdown - Wall Street squanders our money.
And Washington is forced to bail them out with - you guessed it - our money.
Can it get any worse?
Under Barack Obama's plan, the government would spend $1 trillion more, even after the bailout.
$1 trillion
Who pays? You!
New TAXES
New SPENDING
New DEBT
Barack Obama's plan - it will make the problem WORSE.
