Another advantage to a Bush win, would be for us to capitalize on that win, and face the issue of the NY elite media, being liberal political organizations.

I believe the only way to defeat their influence is to demand that our Reps in gov absolutely refuse to cater to, be influence by, speak to, explain to, refuse to appear on all network news programs, or respond to the NYT editorial page.

Republicans, Conservatives, and Libertarians have let the elites in NY push them around for 30 years. They make decisions according to their news coverage.

Our Reps should heavily concentrate on local and state media explaining and defending their positions, and speak to their individual constituents more regularly. All cities have major local morning shows, that would love to have extended conversations with their reps. Also our federal reps could begin to explain to their grassroots the advantage of local and state spending programs, vs. federal.

The ABC memo was a deliberate challenge to us, it was in-your-face, it was meant to say "we can defeat you".

I say let's put them away, so we can have a fair fight on immigration and border control, and demand less social spending.

So the plan is that we cheer Bush on through November 2nd and after that we cry foul over the immigration issue?

Sounds like a good plan to me.
