This game can be won in ten minutes.
Here is how you do it.
These guys care about two things - not being insulted and not having someone's religion crammed down their throat.
Seriously, that's about all they care about.
To win them, you take a part of the Standard Party Line and give it to them. This is what you tell them:
"We will defend to the death the First Amendment and your right to practice the religion of your choice or none at all."
Then you simply mention "those with no faith" in politicians' speeches. Just mention them. They'll flip out and be all smiles. Bush did exactly that. They completely freaked out and thought it was fantastic.
The only other thing you tell them is this:
"We are the party of smaller government. I'm sure you recognize, as do we, that as Government gets larger, the more things it regulates, and the more it reduces your freedoms and the ability to keep things at bay. We want to make sure you retain your rights, but the only way to do that is to shrink the size of the Government. Ask the Japanese during WWII how well 'Big Government' served them."
Quote to them that "A government large enough to give you everything you want is also large enough to take everything away from you" and add to that, "That includes throwing you in camps and forcing you into a church".
This one is a slam-dunk. It is amazing nobody can figure this one out.
Just for kicks.
Exactly who is it that’s cramming religion down their throats?
While I am a religious person I do not disagree that there needs to be a much better outreach to these voters. Some of your ideas are not bad ideas.
Do you mean, by this, no interference with the abortion license and mandatory recognition of homosexual "marriages," or do you mean something else?
If you mean something else, could you give a specific example of what you mean?
