One tactic of communist propaganda is to plant the idea of inevitability, that you have already lost.
That shows in the earliest writings- communism is “historically inevitable”.
Work out your unease through campaign volunteer work. Or make pointed 3x5 card “posters” and put them up at the grocery store “community bulletin” board.
Write some viral emails, with every fact having a documented source and / or link, and send them out.
Get an overhead projector and make a pro-McCain or Anti-0 sign and project it huge where ten thousand people can see it.
You’ll feel better.
Good post in #44, DBrow... you really gave me something to think about. ;-)
