Conservatism resonates when it's stated boldly and clearly.
>> get specific
In other words, stop bull-pooping...
But the current leadership is damaged goods. We need to clean house.
Vote out the RINOs in 2014 — Do it!!!
Right says Republicans must get specific to roll back liberal tide

“specific”
as in DO IT...
No more GOP nominees who are liberals...
No more Romneys, Christies, McCains..
Roll back the liberals,, way back to oblivion...
GOP-e Candidate: In new film, a dramatic look at Mitt Romney's loss of confidence ".....[Mitt] Romney wasn't buying it. Instead, he went into an extended monologue on how his father, former Michigan Gov. George Romney, was a better man than he will ever be. As he spoke, Romney held the notes he had made during the debate (candidates are not allowed to bring any notes with them to the stage, but are allowed to make them during the debate). Romney pointed out that in every debate he began by writing "Dad" at the top of the paper.
"That's what I start with: 'Dad,'" Romney explained. "I always think about Dad and about I am standing on his shoulders. I would not be there, there's no way I would be able to be running for president, if Dad hadn't done what Dad did. He's the real deal …"
"You're the real deal," said one of Romney's sons.
Romney didn't pause. "The guy was born in Mexico. He didn't have a college degree. He became head of a car company and became a governor. It would have never entered my mind to be in politics, how can you go from his beginning to think, I can be head of a car company, I can run for governor, I can run for president?"
Romney wasn't finished. "The gap — for me, I started where he ended up. I started off with money and education, Harvard Business School, Harvard Law School. For me it's moving that far" — Romney held two fingers close together — "for him, it's like that," Romney said, holding his arms wide apart.".......
Democrat Candidate: Frustration Brews as de Blasio Drags Feet on Remaining Appointments "Two weeks after taking office, Mayor Bill de Blasio has yet to fill a long list of top administration positions, leading to frustrations and confusion in some corners about how long holdover staffers are supposed to stay on. Despite a flurry of hires in the days before he took office, which seemed to quell public criticism, Mr. de Blasio hasn’t named a single new appointment since last Tuesday, when he rolled out his press team, leaving a long list of agencies without permanent leaders, including the New York City Housing Authority, responsible for housing more than 400,000 residents, the Department of Buildings, which oversees building inspections at nearly 1 million properties, and the Department of Correction, which oversees the city’s jails, marking the slowest rollout in modern mayoral history.........
................ a long list of agencies await appointments, including the Department of Parks and Recreation, the Department for the Aging, Department of Consumer Affairs, Department of Housing Preservation and Development, the Human Resources Administration, the Department of Information Technology and Telecommunications, the Department of Environmental Protection, the Department of Design and Construction, the Department of Cultural Affairs, the Department of Citywide Administrative Services and the Department of Small Business Services, as well as the Taxi and Limousine Commission, the Health and Hospitals Corporation and numerous boards.
“There’s a lot of anxiety in a lot of different places,” he said. “People sort of looking at each other.”
I just finished “Public Opinion” by Walter Lippmann. It was written in the early twenties. According to that reading a politician who is plainly spoken and says something precisely and unambiguously will most likely lose. As an example of brilliant winning ambiguity Lippmann analyses Wilson’s fourteen points. They were an example of vagueness wherein each point meant something different to the man who read it because they were written is such a way as to let that man project on them his preconceived notion of what they meant. To a Democrat they were interpreted one way and to a Republican another. To a Frenchman they meant one thing to a Brit another. They were brilliantly crafted so that each faction could accept them but only with their interpretation.
Obama used simply hope and change. To each person who heard them those words were imbued with the listener’s interpretation of what they meant. The right is so fractionated that a precise and unambiguous speech will inevitably alienate one or more of the many factions. Such a speech will inevitably also lose the middle ground voter as well. Any precise statement of intent will also be picked up and amplified by the opposition.
We must elect good men of good character and then trust that they will do what we consider the right thing. Sorry about that. But ambiguity is the only way to win an election.
That's odd (cackle). Nancy plumb forget to mention "Obamacare"--- the signature legislation of their president. Dems said they were so s-u-r-e Americans would love Obama's wonderful healthcare plan, that O/Care's a winning Democrat issue.
=================================================
But lately, Dems seem to have gotten the heebie jeebies about Obamacare. Is this why? (cackle)
As far back as 2008, at the presidential debate in Nashville, Democrat candidate Obama advanced his signature plan that was ultimately enacted (by an historic straight Democrat party-line vote) into the "Affordable Care Act :
OBAMA: "No. 1, let me just repeat, if you’ve got a health care plan that you like, you can keep it. All I’m going to do is help you to lower the premiums on it. You’ll still have choice of doctor.”
Repeated over and over ---- with the promise that every American family would be saving $2500.00 on healthcare costs.
LOCK-STEPPING PARTY LOYALTY NOT SEEN SINCE 1940's ERA EUROPE Obama And The Dumbos marched in lockstep. The persistent Dumbocrat drumbeat ---- in obeisance to Obama ---- kept ringing reassuringly in our ears: "If you like your plan, you can keep your plan."
=================================================
Nanzi Pelosi sap-happily told Dems told they had to pass O/Care to find out what was in it. Then she distributed kneepads and Talking Points.
THE PAPER TRAIL IS HUGE: The similarity of the Dem "keep it" assurances shows it all came from the same place. Clearly, obeisance to Obama was at the top of the agenda....lock-stepping party loyalty was the order of the day. Discouraging words were not to be tolerated.
One can almost hear the Dems lock-step marching---redolent of 1940's-era Europe. Only thing missing was the salutes.
What a motley sick bunch – Dems all snuggled up in our White House hoping Americans will forget we’ve lost four brave Americans in Benghazi due to blatant lies and negligence. Obama lied, Hillary lied, Panetta lied, Carney lied and the Liberal MSM CYA'd the Obama team's filthy **ses.
All of 'em colluding to cover up the ugly truth---the Commander-in-Chief was too dam busy resting up so he could campaign in Las Vegas the next day, rather than save Americans under attack in Benghazi.
Get specific and start taking on job killing regulations regulations. Its also way past time to start cutting payroll and income taxes.
Being specific is less than half the battle.
Republicans MUST LEARN TO FIGHT!!!!
I have commented on that myself.
Dems demand all these employer mandates and the elected GOP when asked about them sound like they are just repeating the failed campaign lines for the Romney/Ryan campaign.
They are so predictable that Dems have 10 comebacks memorized for each GOP line ("No it creates jobs").
Do these folks really believe those policies are bad or are they just repeating what they hear?
The GOP gave us open borders, deficits,
lying, gay marriage, and RomneyCARE/ObamaCARE.
And you know what?
The GOP still supports all the above.
