Well then use black and women Repubs to state your case, but for damn sure, don’t give up on the angry part! Get in the media’s face and tell them what you think of them as the propaganda arm of the DNC, and do it in a unifying manner (use the same buzzwords and catch-phrases and to hell with the media trying to call you on it). Do NOT be afraid of the “media” (they think you are anyway). Take the fight straight to them. Do NOT back down!
“Well then use black and women Repubs to state your case,”
No, no, no. They have been trying that for years already, and everyone sees it as cynical window dressing.
Not to mention, it is the equivalent of intraparty affirmative action, meaning that we are stooping to tactics we condemn in others. Or do you think it is coincidence that any pretty much any minority elected to office in the GOP becomes nationally prominent in their very first term? (as long as they aren’t too conservative that is)
Right on! Within two weeks of Bush’s election, the Dems had created the mantra “worst economy in 30 years”, and worked it into every public pronouncement for the next eight years. It didn’t matter that it wasn’t true, it just mattered that the public heard it repeated constantly.
Something like “Freedom hating liberals” might be one thought. Or maybe old Spiro’s “Pusillanimous pussyfooters”, “nattering nabobs of negativism”, or “effete corps of impudent snobs who characterize themselves as intellectuals”
One of the reasons for the tea party’s effectiveness was the use of the “stealing our children’s future” mantra.

Well said. This has to be job one, because if we don’t get our message out, we don’t exist.
