The Keys To Victory

1) Show No Fear, Fight The Right As Its Equal.
2) Fight for a Bold, Visionary Progressive Agenda.
3) Fight the Smears As Soon As They're Spread. Bullies Cave When You Stand Up To Them.
4) Register Everyone Who Isn't Registered and GIVE THEM A REASON TO VOTE.
5) Be The Party of Everyone the Republicans EXCLUDE. Together, THE EXCLUDED ARE THE MAJORITY.
6) Be "Pro-People" First, "Pro-Business" Second. Business can take care of itself and needs no favoritism.

Do these things and we will win.

2. Not Bad At All, Sir

In my view, conventioinal analysis misses the mark on the business of appealing to the "undecided" middle. People in elections are not swayed to one side or another by reasoned consideration: they are moved to identify with a passion. It must be expressewd in a language they use themselves, and be a passion they can share, but that remains the essential key to moving such people.

4. I'm sort of with you on that.

But we can't stop all the rest and focus ONLY on fighting secret vote counting.
The rest is needed too. The rest is necessary to build a resistance movement if the secret vote counting
happens anyway.

7. "Jesus Christ in an uncle sam suit"

would not be able to win if they are counting the votes in secret.

I stole the JC line from someone along the way but its very true.
