Yeah, I’m having a hard time coming up with them, too. But I’m not talking just about elected officials. I’m talking about “commentators”.
I guess what I’m getting at is this: this is beginning to look and feel to me like 1994 when a national game plan worked. We need telegenic people carrying our message (and counterpunching) on TV and in the media. They don’t have to be running for anything. But they should have a tight, consistent, theme....maybe even another ‘contract’.
I haven’t thought it all through, but it’s better than scatterred responses from individual candidates. They can use local media.
I’m not getting the same vibe as 1994 at all. This entire election has seemingly become Palin-centric. It’s very different from ‘94 when the momentum was with the entire GOP from top to bottom nationwide. The battle now is to hold on for dear life to what we have now, including the Exec branch, not making sweeping gains, which just isn’t happening. The Dems are only in panic mode over being in a losing position to take the Exec, and they’re not sweating it so much over Congress.
As for names and faces to put up on the tv, I’m a bit stumped. We just don’t have a whole lot of stars. Unfortunately, the bitter hatred we see from the media permeates down to the local level. They’re even more now in the bag for Obama as Dhimmis than they were for Kerry and Gore. Sick stuff.
