To: Libertarianize the GOP
Well, what will happen, grasshopper, is that the government, dems and pubbies alike, will ignore it and ignore you and know that you will eventually fade away. What you need to do is find a way to hit a nerve in the greater population. And the only way you will get traction is to not freak out half the population with rubbing the sales tax markup in their faces.

Look at the swift boat vets. Kerry tried to ignore them, but they struck a big nerve and eventually Kerry had to confront the problem they created. He still is dodging the issues, but he is having a hard time because they are hanging on their simple truths and not being drawn into a big fight that they would lose.

I think we are discussing two different issues, I have been telling why I like the fair tax and I think you are talking about how to sell taxreform to the people?
