You mean about 35 to 40% of the voters. Conservatives understand what happened. And probably a good percentage of libs do to. But the ignorati, the great majority of Dem voters, do not have a clue. The story must be told however, and the person telling it has to be very good. If a conservative candidate can just convince about ten to twenty percent of the ignorati who vote, a Pubbie will easily win in 2012.
Cause you are dealing with some simple minded voters!
The best argument against democracy is a five-minute conversation with the average voter. - - - Winston Churchill
Today one cannot speak on any subject for more than a couple of minutes before eyes glaze over. While conservatives are better than most they are not as knowledgeable as they should be particularly in economic and financial matters.
What matters more than explaining the story is to go on the attack and never relent. Attack the lying media and the lying RATS and never back down. Make the enemy defend and we have a chance.
