Find the attacks that work--and ATTACK.

Attacks on Palin's children will not work.

Until we find something tangible, provable, and effective against Palin, the focus on her is NOT helping.

I do NOT oppose any attacks on principle--I only oppose them due to lack of effectiveness.

Hit her and McCain on privatizing Social Security. Hit her and McCain on abortion. Hit her and McCain on this terrible economy.

Don't let your frustration and anger get the better of you. Attack, but choose the right battles.

We can still WIN.

1. The attack should be to expose McCain's instability and Palin's extremism.

They are being called Mavericks - this is their strength. We need to attack it. Expose McCain for being a hothead and making rash decisions. Expose Palin for her radical religious views. Do we want either one of these people taking that 3 am phone call?

Experience is not the way to go.

3. The economy, jobs for starters! Economy trumps the GOP mantra of God Guns and Gays.

It worked for Bill Clinton in 1992, it will work now and the nation is in a more precarious situation than 1992. Tell em, guns will not pay the mortgage or the rent, God is not the best bet if you get sick or hurt and have no insurance, and the LGBT community were not the ones that outsourced the jobs. Culture wars the GOP likes to trot out are worn out if we fight back.

6. McCain/Bush

entrenched politician trying to sell the same old snake oil as a new kind of republican.. Lobbyists up the wazoo.. and absolutely no programs to improve the economy. The biggest bunch of nothing that has ever had the temerity to claim they were a campaign for the leader of the free world.
