  • @Tokopol The Spanish Inquisition?

  • @jpheitman They controlled all fiscal policy. If it wasn't Republicans, who was it? Communists infiltrating our bodily fluids? Martians? The French?

  • @Tokopol Right, right, that was all the Republican's fault...

  • @jpheitman And then plunged the country into a recession shortly afterward.

  • @scooticus It's funny, 'cause they won that round. :P

  • Stevenson's ad attacks GOP confusion, but doesn't say what his own positions are.

    Thanks for playing.

  • Is this the first negative ad ever?

    I love how the early political ads seem to attract Preschoolers.

    I know a way the GOP could attract young voters: "Michelle Obama wants to take away your candy!!!! Vote GOP!!!" That would be funny.

  • I recall the music as the opening them to BOZO THE CLOWN cartoons....appropo given the circus background.

  • This is from 1952, not '56. Eisenhower ended Korea in 1953

  • @harfarhs It was unpopular but sill unstable, such as it still is today.
