Saul Alinsky was a brilliant man. Evil, but brilliant. Unfortunately, whether we like it or not, everyone on the Left from the President on down is playing by his rules in the political arena. Not all liberals have read his book or know his name, but his tactics have become universal. Sadly for conservatives, when two evenly matched forces go head-to-head outside of a fairy tale, the side that tries to play nice usually ends up with its head in a box. So, don't lie or become an evil person like Alinsky, but learn from what he wrote and give the Left a taste of its own medicine.
1) Power is not only what you have but what the enemy thinks you have.
2) Never go outside the experience of your people.
3) Wherever possible go outside the experience of the enemy.
4) Make the enemy live up to their own book of rules.
4A) Ridicule is man’s most potent weapon.
6) A good tactic is one that your people enjoy.
7) A tactic that drags on too long becomes a drag.
8) Keep the pressure on.
9) The threat is usually more terrifying than the thing itself.
10) The major premise for tactics is the development of operations that will maintain a constant pressure upon the opposition.
11) If you push a negative hard and deep enough it will break through into its counterside.
12) The price of a successful attack is a constructive alternative.
13) Pick the target, freeze it, personalize it, and polarize it.

You forgot nicknames for Ducie and Kemp. They’re both sellouts to the Dem’s and Chinese so they should be included in this list.
“4) Make the enemy live up to their own book of rules.”
This should be done without accepting their rules as truth. This is something that conservatives seem to struggle with.
If you haven’t, do yourself the favor of reading David Horowitz’s “Art of Political War and Other Radical Pursuits”. Good stuff.
And MI - WHitler. Or Grinchy WHitler. Or Witless.
NM - Michelle Wuhan-Grisham.
So some old dude dreams up some “rules” and that’s supposed to mean something?
Getting his junk published doesn’t mean it’s valid or anything to fear.
It ain’t like he’s Pythagoras or anything.
Screw him and his “suggestions”.
Oldie but goodie...

Dedicated to satan.
That doesn’t mean the tactics aren’t good ones.
“ And MI - WHitler. Or Grinchy WHitler. Or Witless.”
I am partial to “der Gretchenfeurer”.
It’a not as if Alinsky invented them, these tactics have been used for centuries.

Ridicule,
A close second.
4A) Ridicule is man’s most potent weapon.
Michigan Medusa, Plasticface Psychopath Pelosi, Marxine Waters, Diane Frankenstein, Navin Grusome, Joementia, Willie’s Mattress, Mitch McTurtle, Linda Graham, Lori Lighthead...and on and on and that’s just the politicians. It’s free, it’s fun. A Free Republic is a Fun Republic.
My personal favorite:
RULE 4(a): “Ridicule is man’s most potent weapon.
There is no defense. It’s irrational. It’s infuriating. It also works as a key pressure point to force the enemy into concessions.”
(Pretty crude, rude and mean, huh? The left wants to create anger and fear. Would that mine enemy had written a book, THEY DID and we READ IT!)
