Tactically, we need to concentrate our fire when the opposition screws up.
Akin and Mourdock utter unfortunate phrases, the whole country hears about it and generalizes to Republicans. How many times did Americans hear about 47% and Bain Capital?
Was there a concerted effort to expose Benghazi? 46 million on food stamps? 57 states? Solyndra? War Powers Act?
Democrats screw up constantly. It works in their favor because we divide our fire at multiple targets. Anthony Weiner went down because he didn’t screw up enough. Bill Clinton is a bleeping hero because he beat back all of our feeble attacks on multiple targets.
I don’t know how we coordinate this, but we need to pick one target and hammer it until it’s in tatters. Then we move onto the next one.
Unfortunately, we do concentrate our fire when one of our own screws up.
The 46 million on food stamps are the ones who won.
