Democrats Have Secret Plan for November
Newsmax ^ | June 13th, 2010

Political analysts are predicting a huge win for Republicans in November's congressional elections, but some Democrats believe they have a secret plan to stave off a crushing Republican landslide.

That’s the analysis from Newsweek magazine’s Andrew Romano, who writes that “the Democrats in charge are actually rather confident about getting their fellow Dems elected this year. The reason? They have a plan — a plan that they believe will produce much better results on Election Day than anyone expects.”

The first element of that plan is the return of Obama’s former campaign manager David Plouffe, who left politics after Obama’s election win. At the president’s request, he is now communicating on a regular basis with the Democratic National Committee on campaign strategy.

Plouffe’s top priority is to get many of the 15 million people who voted for the first time in 2008, and largely supported Obama, back to the polls this year. His main weapon is the 13-million-name e-mail list from the Obama campaign now available to the DNC.

The focus on individual elections for Democrats will be “keep it local,” according to Romano. “While Republicans hammer away at national themes targeted at right-wing activists, Democrats plan to focus on bread-and-butter regional concerns like jobs.”

Democrats also believe that the emergence of tea party challengers in GOP primaries will help their candidates attract moderate voters. A tea party candidate who wins the primary will drive moderates toward the Democrat in the general election, the thinking goes, and a tea partyer who loses will likely have forced the winning Republican to move further to the right and possibly alienate moderate voters.

They'd better attach a coupon for a free Wii, a large slurpee,and a few Big Macs to that email to get Barry's supporters out of their parents basements.

OFA has an organization and database bigger than anything on the right. Get involved with a local campaign.

Sorry but they ran on that in 2006 and have managed to destroy the job market. I seriously doubt if many will be fooled again.

Bravado escapes me...I am scared to death. Glad everyone else seems positive, but I'm still reeling from the impact of Obama being elected in the first place. There are too many devious undercurrents swirling around to feel secure about the survival of our country.

“the Democrats in charge are actually rather confident about getting their fellow Dems elected this year. The reason? They have a plan — a plan that they believe will produce much better results on Election Day than anyone expects.”

Propaganda to keep the dems in office from cutting and running.

Kinda like chaining a gunner to heavy machine gun.

My thought exactly. How are they going to make “jobs” a positive for Democrats locally?

I disagree...

I think they know and anticipate a republican victory, and that is part of their plan.

Once the republicans BARELY have control after November,
ALL HELL CAN BREAK LOOSE as a result of everything the dems have been doing since Obama took office, and the dems will once again have a scapegoat that the state run media will exploit to it’s maximum to CEMENT democrat control in 2012 permanently!

I don't think the November election is the slam-dunk that conservatives seem to think it will be. Republicans will be hard pressed to take control of the House and they will not take the Senate.

I would urge every conservative to sign up to work for a conservative candidate this summer and fall. The Democrats/liberals have lots of money and control the media. I will take a lot of hard work to overcome the Democrat's organizational advantages.

I would especially urge Freepers to get involved in their state races. State governments elected in 2010 will be responsible for redistricting which will have a big impact for the whole decade.

Work now. Save the celebration for November.
