I dunno, I'd go for "Treat yourself right," a la Dr. Scholl's.  

This is a "change" year, no question about it. Enough with the vacuous sloganeering. Can we have some substance, please?

Dunnon - "The change you deserve" sounds more like a punishment than a promise.  Kinda like facing a brass-knuckle wearing thug in a dark alley, who tells you, "you want change, do ya?  well, let me show some change you deserve!"

Y'all are reading this much too metaphorically. The slogan is actually meant literally. It describes the pennies per gallon of gas the GOP promises to save you for a few months each year. That's the change you deserve. GOP congressional candidates are going to start throwing pennies from their pockets at public gatherings.

I believe Feliway's slogan "The secret to happy cats" would add a delightful, Dada-esque quality to a campaign that has already plumbed the depths of surrealism.

It's the "change you deserve" for voting for Shrubby twice - which, as icarusr points out, reads like punishment.

If the GOP is going to rip off an existing tagline, why stop at Effexor's?

Courtesy my buddy Eric Swartz ("The Tagline Guru") and in recognition of Chris Orr's dual duties as political observer and film critic, here are a few movie taglines that provide the 'Pubs a certain je ne sais quoi they may have been lacking of late:

I like the phrase that has been heard around New Orleans lately -

"Raise the drawbridge! Release the gators to the moat!"

That sorta captures the GOP posture/vision/attitude, towards the world, towards anyone who doesn't golf. Not a bad lyric either.

Good comments above.  I agree that "change you deserve" sounds like it should be followed by "...after 8 years of an incompetent Republican President."

This post made me laugh from the gut. Delicious.

This post was delicious, Mr. Orr. Thanks!

dang...double post...
