That is not brainstorming. It’s a page from the democrat “get me elected” handbook. Yes, I am happy with Fred’s campaign. See, I don’t listen to what the MSM tells me, I listen to my conservative counterparts. We, the silent majority may have become a bit more vocal than usual, however, we are still the “silent type”. I do not concern myself with what “polls” state, remember how well they foretold Dean? I know in my heart, as well as other Fredheads out there, that he is the one. I trust myself more than any “gimmicky” campaign ploy can render.

You continue to miss the point.

You wrote 8 sentences and used I - 6 times; we 2 - times; me - 1 time; my - 1 time; ; myself - 1 time.

I KNOW he is campaigning properly to get your vote.

Fred needs more than your just support, even more than the support of the 25-30% of the American voters who are true conservatives, to win.

Would your logic make sense if we substituted the average voter for salient references to yourself?

Read....

See, the average voter doesn’t listen to what the MSM tells them, the average voter listens to their conservative counterparts.

The average voter does not concern himself with what polls state...

The average voter knows in his heart, as well as other Fredheads out there, that he is the one.

The average voter trusts himself more than any gimmicky campaign ploy can render.

It makes no sense.

In marketing, every day we deal with the notion of “You’ve gotta stop the eye to start the sale.” We attempt to do this by making the message “PoP!”...get the consumer’s attention. Then when you have their attention supply them your message as uniquely, susinctly as possible and in a way that they’ll remember it.

Fred’s got the message but he’s got no “PoP!” The average voter can’t get past the image.

Your happiness with Fred’s campaign is a problem. Fred’s happiness with his campaign is THE problem. He’s gone from about 20% support down to about 10% in most states. Worse in several. What he’s doing is not working.

Successful campaigns must be able to adjust. persistence might help as other candidates drop out and he splits a little of their support with others. But if he can only get about half or a third of Giuliani’s level of support now, what he’s doing is not working.

His campaign has changed a little in the past 48 hours. I just hope it won’t be too little, too late.
