Warren G. Harding campaign slogan

Harding was the first Presidential candidate to hire a professional ad man, Chicagoan Albert Lasker, an advertising pioneer, and this is one of the slogans he came up with:

“Let’s be done with wiggle and wobble!”

(Cummins, Joseph (2012-01-17). Anything for a Vote: Dirty Tricks, Cheap Shots, and October Surprises in U.S. Presidential Campaigns (Kindle Location 2368). Quirk Books. Kindle Edition.)

Harding’s opponent was Democrat James Cox, apparently the first John Kerry.
