DRUDGE EXCLUSIVE: GOP TO LAUNCH 'WHITE FLAG' DEM ATTACK

The DRUDGE REPORT has learned from a top GOP operative that the Republican National Committee will provide state parties with a web video prior to release tomorrow afternoon that shows a white flag waving over images of Democrat leaders making anti-war remarks.

The ad is in response to the controversial comments Democratic Party Chairman Howard Dean and 2004 Democratic Presidential nominee John Kerry made earlier in the week.

A Democratic strategist who had the web ad described to her said, “This is way over the top but we have no one to blame but Dean, Kerry and others who continue to pander to the anti-war activists within our party.”

The web video advances the Republican contention that the Democrats only have a “retreat and defeat” message on the war in Iraq.

The video highlights the effect Democrats can have on the morale of U.S. soldiers.

One Republican strategist familiar with the ad said, “The Democrats, especially Howard Dean have a way of trying to turn the tables and say ‘that’s not what I meant’ – its just those ‘evil Republicans’ This video will make them crazy – it reinforces what they really believe with what they actually said – and that is devastating for the Democratic Party.”

Developing...

It's a good start.

[ghost of nixon]

I think Drudge didn't listen carefully - the GOP is going to wave the white flag.

[Pharmboy]

Hee hee...I like this one a lot.

Prediction: Dean will step down by spring. (Remember: he's not only causing them problems, his fund raising sucks too).

[xcamel]

Or maybe a set of these?

Oh My!

[I got the rope]

'Bout time they started to grow some...huevos

[Thanatos]

They could put yellow spines on the flags and start wearing Benidict Arnold support buttons...

[mlbford2]

about time. GOP has gotten soft over the last few yrs

[Spiff]

Awesome! I can't wait to see their heads explode. I'm sure that Howard Dean will be particularly fun to watch. I'm equally sure that he will lead a well-reasoned, logical, and effective response to the ad. You betcha!

[doug from upland]

The real fight has begun with these traitorous bastards.

[karlito]

Oh this will be beautiful!! Make 'em squirm!! If it's really good, I'll send in a couple hundred bucks to help put it on the air, just I did with like the Swifties.

[Private_Sector_Does_It_Better]

Not likely!!!

[msf92497]

If the GOP wants any more of my $$$, they sure as hell better start smackin' the crap outta the dems, and NOT stop.

Doug,

We win when we fight.

There are more of us then there are of them.

[FEARED MUTATION]

Here's hoping they follow thru. I might donate to the RNC again.

[oldenuff2no]

I can't wait to see this ad.

[Just A Nobody]

The timing is perfect. There IS an election next week that is potenially far more important than 2006.

Isn't the Kerry family coat of arms; Upon a field, white, Nothing but Surrender?

Jaques, the French Hero of Viet Nam, willl think it is a tribute to his Kurridge.

[new yorker 77]

I have not donated all year.

I may have to reconsider in 2006.

[TexasTransplant]

The yellow stained one donated by Kerry should fetch a good price at auction.
