Excellent idea actually. Bypass the typical "battleground" states and focus instead on the next tier - the "light blue" states. Focusing on those normally blue states will definitely unnerve the Obama campaign and it will have the effect of pulling the typical battleground states into the red as well.
Good battlefield tactics. Why nibble around at the edges when you can get aggressive and go for the whole enchilada. It's like Patton simply going around the Maginot line and flooding enemy territory with tanks and troops instead of trying to bust through it. Once Patton was through, holding the Maginot line became pointless and it quickly evaporated.
Romney needs to act like a winner. Start telling the country what he will do WHEN he is elected, not IF. Make the case that his election is a fait accompli.
Thanks, I am a student of military history. I study the maps. I think strategically. I like playing on offense.
With an economy as pathetic as this, high unemployment, $16 TRILLION national debt, high gas prices, household income down 4k from four years ago, I HAVE ABSOLUTELY NO IDEA WHY WE ARE NOW ON DEFENSE RIGHT NOW.
