This is true. The mentality is one of wanting to be allied with the "cool" group - no matter why they're "cool". This is why the faded Obama poster line was effective. Romney's people should double down on that approach by likening Obama to the iPhone 5 mapping fiasco. They need to make him un-hip, passé, cliché, old, stale, yesterday's fashion.
Exactly.
We need to realize that the left are selfish, egotistic and yearn for attention. People that will not pay for insurance, car payments, utilities, etc. so they can keep that iphone on. They do not put their own family before their infantile needs.
A few years back I was familiar with a nest of lefties. Two brothers were raging about how the government didn't do more to save their mother who was ill and also mentally debilitated. Their mother was on all sorts of assistance but they blamed everyone else for not paying more to care for her better.
They blamed me, they blamed my Conservative friends and family...
Then they talked about how much work and money they put into their cabin boat and how much weed they smoked, all the partying they do.
I suggested that perhaps they should have spent less on their "entertainment" and more on their family ...
it just doesn't connect in their brains
