"To Strike at Kochs, Democrats Revive Tactic That Hurt Romney"

[Blanks]

36. I'm getting 'Koch Brother' fatigue...

Don't get me wrong, they're despicable - but I've seen clips of Glenn Beck go on and on about George Soros and he looks like an obsessed moron. Is that really how we want to look?

I get 6 or more emails a day from everyone from Al Franken to Harry Reid where they mention the Koch Brothers. I think it can be over done. They have come to represent the generic conservative contributor and I think its lazy to associate them with ALL the bad things that are going on. There are bound to be other conservative contributors that can be targeted and discussing specific Koch brothers ACTIONS can be pointed out as despicable - they don't have to be mentioned every time.

My concern (and I've already seen it) is that in the social media people will begin defending the Koch brothers and then all of this bluster will look like a Glenn Beck schtick. I'd rather see specific areas that they are poisoning highlighted and let the people defend the generic polluters. Constantly attacking the Koch brothers is putting all the eggs in one basket, and it's like a couple of people have pointed out - it isn't like Romney. Romney's problem was his complete lack of charisma and social skills.

The Koch brothers can simply donate a couple of million to feed the children and make that known and any gains by this smear campaign will evaporate almost instantly. I don't agree with the approach.
