I can not beleive there are so many on FR that are light on anti-God agenda! It is the foundation of our downfall.
The fastest way to eliminate an opponent is to attack his weaknesses. Liberals are currently vulnerable on fiscal policy and will likely try to move the debate to social issues to avoid being bludgeoned to death. It’s not that we don’t care about the social issues it’s that those issues will not deliver the same impact overall in the shortest time possible.
If they “win” the course of debate then we stand to “lose” the battle. No matter how morally superior our positions may be it is an opportunity to obscure their failures and hope the electorate forgets. If we turn the economy around before 2012 we win the debate/agenda for the next 4 years afterward.
