Adam Felber clues us in on the GOP strategy to keep the White House:
September 2, 2004 – We’re in New York, nominating our President. What? He’s right near Ground Zero just before the anniversary of 9/11? Weird! Maybe he should talk about National Security of something… [rotfl!]
Week of September 11, 2004 – President declares period of remembrance and mourning. Implies that the Democrats are being tasteless talking about “debates” and “campaigns” and “issues” at this solemn time.
October, 2004 – Advertising blitz! This is where your money really comes into play. All $200 million gets spent in a few weeks. Democrat’s ads: The economy, health care, the environment, education, blah blah blah blah blah… Our ads: Flags! Songs! Support out troops! Shock and Awe, boys, Shock and Awe.
Meanwhile, we find that the “unfortunate” late start to the campaign means we only have time for one debate. We force through a “Hollywood Squares” format and include the Greens, the Socialists, the Libertarians, and the American Alien Abductees Party. Fair is fair!
