I'm going to give you the same advice I gave all the Perry supporters in Sept.

don't race around here trash talking the other candidates with emotion based personal attacks. NO one is magically going to migrate to your candidate of choice because you trash talked the other candidates.

Make a case FOR your candidate instead. GOP voters respond to issues, not personal attacks. One of the reasons Perry imploded was his campaign though your sort of trash talk political attacks was the way to campaign.

Conservatives are use to seeing these sort of attacks from the Left. We are naturally suspicious when we see people supposedly on our side using the same tactics

See post #96.

The left was using Alinski tactics again. They weren't trying to upset the public. They were trying to "nudge" us. They thought WE would respond with outrage. The black voting block, who may have been thinking about supporting Cain, would see our outrage and see how racists wee really were.
WE would be attacking the black guy, because he "dared to touch a white woman!".

The left wouldn't have to do anything but watch us be "racists." They were trying to manipulate US.

They failed.
