And in the process create a perfect metaphor for the party’s economic policies.

If you don’t remember, this was billed as news that would excite Democrats across the country.

Democratic National Committee Chairman Tim Kaine plans to make what’s being billed as a major announcement Wednesday about the future of the party, according to a Democratic source with knowledge of the speech.

The source tells CNN that Kaine will announce something that will excite Democrats across the country. Kaine’s event comes as Democrats face the difficult task of holding onto their majorities in the House and Senate this November.

Well, get excited Democrats, because you’re getting a new logo! A logo, by the way, that looks God-awful on merchandise.

But wait, there’s more! The logo, which looks like it was created by a 12-year-old with Photoshop 7, comes complete with a new website! A website that can only be explained by a budget that was smaller than the one I had to build this rickety house I call my blog.

So what’s the metaphor? The party is on a road to major defeat in November, facing a loss of one or both chambers of Congress. The president’s approval rating has fallen. The party’s policies have failed. So what does the leadership do? It puts out new imagery, a new logo and website. Like that will fix everything.

It’s the same thing Washington Democrats do when their economic policies fail. Rather than acknowledge that the $787 billion stimulus failed, they wrap the pile of turd in a nice bow and hope no one will notice it’s crap. They launch a new PR offensive or put up more signs. But they don’t actually do anything of substance. It’s all imagery.

Just like right now. Via Allahpundit, the White House and Democratic allies are planning a fall PR offensive for the massively unpopular ObamaCare. The legislation is as crappy as ever, of course, but they’ll wrap it up in a new bow and try to pass it off as a gift.

Update: Chris Good of The Atlantic finds the logo closely resembles that of a pizza chain in Ohio. He asked a Dem spokesman about the similarity. No comment.
