Democrats Embrace "New GOP Leaders"
The Democratic Party is seizing on the current high profile of past GOP figures – from former House Speaker Newt Gingrich to former Vice President Dick Cheney— to diminish the present Republican Party. Those two will be cast, along with former Bush aide Karl Rove, as the party's leaders in a multimedia Democratic National Committee campaign opening Wednesday with a web video.

The strategy follows the Democrats' satisfaction with their own efforts to paint talk radio host Rush Limbaugh as the face of the GOP—a strategy that led a series of Republican officials to criticize Limbaugh and then to awkwardly apologize for that criticism.
