Compile a database of enemies from social networks, like Facebook, and find ways to intimidate them. Find ways to silence and intimidate talk radio, Fox News, internet blogs. Audit tax returns and find other ways to harass and prosecute opponents. Set up some circuses, like prosecuting CIA agents, John Ashcroft, Dick Cheney. Create more support by removing people from the tax rolls and/or legalizing their immigration status and organize them into goon squads to attack protestors and voters in Republican districts. Imprison protestors. All sorts of things.
When the rats run out of ideas, they can always consult Putin, Chavez, or Ahmadinejad. They know how to handle dissent.
All good ideas. It’ll be interesting to see if they really have the competence to pull it off.
My bet based on watching this bunch is ‘no’.
