George Lakoff

I think that if the Democrats could use the wisdom of George Lakoff, in conjunction with working class policies, that they'd win back a lot of voters. George knows how to frame a progressive agenda in clear, compelling language.

I think that if John Kerry had been able to convey this message, he would have won:

"We came together because of our moral values: care and responsibility, fairness and equality, freedom and courage, fulfillment in life, opportunity and community, cooperation and trust, honesty and openness. We united behind political principles: equality, equity (if you work for a living, you should earn a living) and government for the people--all the people."

George has what Democrats need and tonight I'll pray that more Democratic politicians sleep with his books under their pillows.
