Republicans are doing one thing very smart. We need to do it, too.
I'm so tired of listening to Republicans griping on TV, especially in clips from Fox News. We need to vote their butts out of Washington in November.
But here's the thing: Republicans are getting their perverted messages across to the public, maybe a little better than Democrats.
How? They live by the axiom Keep It Simple, Stupid.
Democrats, starting with President Obama, could take a lesson. While the 99%/1% tag is good, it also is not hard hitting enough.
What Democrats should be saying is this: Republicans aren't leaders. Leaders lead and offer solutions. Republicans won't.
We're finally hearing the beginning of Democrats and the President saying we need a Congress he can work with. We need a ad slogan whiz (better than me) to come up with a slogan that will stick on bumpers and in minds.
And dare I suggest another Republican tactic: Talk up Boehner as Boner or Goner, and start coming up with more nicknames for Republicans. They're not having any trouble doing it with the president.
I hate to see what would happen if Romney should win. Hopefully the electorate will smarten up.
