The game plan for the rest of the election cycle was apparent today...
The Republi-fascists are going to sow fear and hysteria in their "base" THEN hope others will follow them down the middle east rat hole.
Curiously, the Democrats will have a hard time countering the hysteria UNLESS THEY THINK THIS THROUGH CAREFULLY...
Democrats need a good slogan person on staff...ASAP. Just rambling on in the face of Republicans chanting their mantra and slogans will not pull it off.
DEMOCRATS NEED A 'ZINGER' TO COUNTER REPUBLICAN CLAIMS THAT ANY CRITICISM IS DISLOYAL.... AND PLAYING INTO THE HANDS OF THE "TERRORISTS."
CLEARLY, DUBYA & CO ARE NOT INTERESTED IN "TALKING" TO ANYONE...IN THE MIDDLE EAST...AND THAT IS WRONG.
STILL, THEY ARE NOT ABLE TO "MAKE WAR" NOW...BECAUSE OF THE FIASCO IN IRAQ AND THE HORRORS OF LEBANON... SO IRAN WILL JUST SKATE..ON THE NUKES ISSUE.
DEMOCRATS NEED TO GET THEIR STORY STRAIGHT...
COMPLETE WITH CLEAR UNVARIABLE TALKING POINTS, SLOGANS, MANTRAS AND MESSAGES THAT CAN BE REPEATED OVER AND OVER...
MY ADVICE TO THE DEMOCRATS...DON'T ADLIB!!
YOU'RE JUST NOT SMART ENOUGH!
COME UP WITH A CLEAR PARTY LINE AND PUSH IT 24.7 RIGHT UP TILL THE ELECTION....
The only Democrat "smart enough" to adlib on live TV is Howard Dean...and the media did a number on him...so he's damaged goods as far as the key Bubba voters are concerned...
Frankly, I would like to see some very aggressive...even rude talk...from the Democrats this cycle...
This pussy footing around and being nice to stupid Republicans just isn't working.
DEMOCRATS NEED TO TAKE THE GLOVES OFF...
OR, AT LEAST "DESIGNATE" SOMEONE TO BE THE LEADER OF A RUDE ASS-KICKING ANTI-REPUBLICAN CAMPAIGN...
BUBBA LIKES "ROUGH TALK" ...REPUBLICANS KNOW THAT...
DEMOCRATS NEED TO MOVE INTO A "CLASS WARFARE" MODE ASAP...
IT WILL PLAY ON THE STREET! ...PEOPLE ARE WAITING FOR SOMEONE TO SPEAK UP FOR THEIR INTERESTS...ala ROSS PEROT.
GO FOR POPULIST RHETORIC...THE TIME IS RIPE.
