“Right. I dont know why some 3rd party group doesnt run ads pointed at younger women and single mothers: do u want free birth control pills (Obama) or a job with a paycheck so you can buy whatever you please (Romney).”
I think you mean a “nonaffiliated group.” Nonetheless, one thing that the SECOND parties haven’t explored much as a strategy is a sort of detente with the gop where they say the things that need to be said without worrying too much about offending the ever so sensitive and mushy middle. Treat a second party as a sort of farm league with relatively free movement between the two.
The second party in question can be more strident than the gop and run candidates in “unwinnable” districts, pinning down the opposition.
