E-mailing McCain is fine.
E-mails and calls to the soft middle ground voters (including friends and family) are better.
If McCain isn’t going to close the sale then we have to do it for him.
Volunteer. Talk to friends and family. Get out the vote.
We need to turn this campaign around. It is in a downward spiral. The messages are incoherent. Not only is Senator McCain and his campaign delivering different messages on different days, but the ads say one thing and the person (Senator McCain) says another.
Is Senator Obama dangerous or not? We ran an ad saying that he is a dangerous man - which we all agree - yet he went on and say that people should not be “scared” of Obama as president. What?
Let's stay on message. We can disagree with the person in te audience for calling Obama “Arab” but that does not mean he is not dangerous or that we should not be scared. We darn right should be scared because this election is about not just experience and steady leadership (no one cares about experience at this point — otherwise, Oboama would not be where he is and Gov. Palin would not be on the ticket) but about where this country will be heading and the basic principle and philosophy of McCain vs. Obama.
Do we want a radical leftist, a socialist, a Marxist, running this country at this moment in time, or any moment at all? Do we want someone with shady past and associations running the country at this moment in time? Do we want radical leftists (Obama, Pelosi, Reid) controlling both the White House as well as the Congress?
Wake up. The only way for us to change the game is for us to define the playing field and stay on message. We will not win if we play Obama’s game -— economy. We are at a disadvantage. When the economy goes bad, the party in the White House gets the blame no matter what really triggered it (Fannie and Freddie -— brain child of the Democrats).
So let Obama talk about the economy. We just need to reassure people that we will fix it and steps are already being taken to help stabilize it. Stay calm and our productive and innovative work force will turn this economy around. We always have.
Stay on message about differentiating our philosophy — smaller government, personal responsibility, strong military, national security, conservative judges — versus a radical leftist, a community organizer (ACORN), who wants government to take over every aspects of our lives, who together with the liberal media will censor free and open debates/ideas, who will appoint radical liberal judges that will legislate from the benches.
This is how we change the game and hammer home why this campaign exists and why we must not allow Obama in the White House. We need to run ads to spread our messages and we need to amplify our messages on the stump and in meetings, and in debates. And our messages must be consistent and coherent.
We cannot pander and step back because we are afraid of the liberal media. Doing so is cowardly. Doing so is stupidity because we essentially fight with our hands behind our back.
As long as we stay with the facts and be angry for the right reasons that this radical liberal has gotten a pass from the liberal media (painting him as a main stream American — HE IS NOT) why must we be afraid of speaking, of screaming, of yelling until our messages are heard in every town, city, and state in this great country? Yes, a great country that Obama and his lots hate.
Tell the stories, speak the facts, hit home our messages of why we are better for America, of why people should be fearful and scared of the prospect of Obama in the White House and Pelosi and Reid in Congress together.
This is not fear mongering. This is about the future, the safety, the security, and the prosperity of this country we are figthing for and defending.
Let's change the game. Let's focus people's attentions on what is really at stake in this election and not let the economic issue clouds everyone’s judgment.
We must stay on our message. One, Obama is a dangerous radical leftist who wants government intrusion in every aspects of our lives. Two, Obama is a radical leftist who will appoint radical liberal judges to legislate from the benches. Three, Obama is a radical leftist who has shady past and associations (Ayers, Rezko, and radical community groups like ACORN). Four, Obama is a radical leftist who have pushed for the policies that allowed the recklessness of Fannie and Freddie which is the root of our economic problem today.
Stay on message.
