Howard Dean, DNC Chairman, said yesterday that the Democratic Party would wield the Terri Schiavo case against Republicans in the elections of 2006 and 2008. He plans an ad which shows Tom DeLay with the commentary, “Do you want this guy to decide if you die or not, or is that going to be up to your loved ones?”

Excuse me, I thought that Terri’s loved ones, her parents, wanted her to live.

I think it would be great for Republicans if the Dems use the Schiavo case as an election issue.

Let’s see, one party is for the preservation of life, and the other for the right of a husband to kill his wife. Which party do I want to be associated with?
