The Difference Between Republicans and Democrats

Noted by Merrill Matthews over at Human Events:

…To use a football analogy—I mean, we’re talking about Texas—it’s not who hands you the football and it’s not where the ball is handed to you, it’s what you do with the ball after you have it.

Rick Perry took the ball from Bush and scored an economic touchdown for Texas.  Obama took the ball from Bush and fumbled it—repeatedly—giving the other team a chance to score a touchdown…

Even if you really do want to blame Bush for everything which has gone wrong, the fact that GOP Governor Perry has succeeded brilliantly where Democrat President Obama has failed miserably tells the story of the difference between Democrats and Republicans.  Democrats whine and demand more and more and more from the people, Republicans just get to work and try to fix the problems.

Instapundit notes that this could be a campaign slogan in the making – and it does show that Perry would have a strong position to attack Obama on.  We’ll see if he, personally, does anything with it…but even if he doesn’t, the rest of the GOP can.
