Why is this a surprise. If you want to play with the DUmmies, just agitate from the left. Support the wackiest, stupidest, most outlandish things. The trick is to try to berate Democrats for not being liberal enough.

Suggest the Senate Dems should not just filibuster but stage a sit-in. Go after Hillary over her "bigoted" immigration stance. Then, when election time comes around, follow the Senate races and the fringe left candidates. Insist that they are the only true candidates. Start whole discussions on why voting for the Green, who's polling at 0.2% should get the vote over the Dem. Have some fun.

Good point, but you have to build up the reputation first. They seem to have a skill for picking out "attacking from the left" even when there is no further left to go over there.

You are hilarious!
That would be worth rejoining DU again.

Great tips!

There was a pretty clever DU troll using the mirror of that technique here at FR a little while back. His name was GoOrdnance and he posted here for months. He was in deep cover, with a pro-military homepage and lots comments that looked authentically conservative. One day, though, he went a little bit too far -- he blamed Bill and Hillary for something in a way that was just a little too caricatured. That's when I looked through his posting history and became convinced that he was a troll, one with good technique. I reported him to the mods, they looked through his posts and didn't see anything funny but decided to check his computer id code (or whatever it's called) anyway. It turned out that he had been registered under other names and banned several times before. Moral of the story is that there are probably more than a few trolls here using the attack-from-the-right method.
