Campaign strategy

Well we’re a bit more than two weeks away from the midterm election.  I wouldn’t get too excited.  There’s still plenty of time for the Republicans to blow this.   So here’s some advice for what to pound in the stretch.

Immigration.  In spite of what the swells in Caligula D.C. and their media lemmings tell us there is less enthusiasm for “comprehensive immigration reform” than there was as recently as Jun.  What happened?  Ebola and ISIS happened.  And that’s exactly how the Republicans should be framing the issue.

n     Troops should be sent be sent to our southern border before the first boot hits the ground in an Ebola infected African country.

n     So far, one person has died of Ebola in the US.  That is a grand total of ONE.  That one death has cost the US 100s of millions of dollars.  If you throw in the stock market panic caused by the spread of Ebola to two – count them two nurses – that figure is in the billions.

n     For our own economic security should we get a better handle on who is coming and going in our country?

n     ISIS has claimed that they will fly their flag in our Oval Office.  Can we afford not to take them seriously? 

n     More than a 100,000 illegals entered the country in a last minute blitz before The Empty Suit lawlessly declares his amnesty.  

n     Is it out of the question that ISIS would seek to infiltrate 20-30 Ebola infected Islamo-Terror-Fascists across our southern border?  Look what havoc one Ebola case who got nearly immediate attention has caused.  How much panic would 20-30 untraceable cases cause if they did nothing more suspicious than just took to riding public transportation in a major US city?

Energy.  It’s really aggravating that we have to bring this issue up during another election cycle. 

n     The Keystone pipeline should be hung around every Dope candidate’s neck.

n     If they claim that they support the project, the very simple answer is that The Empty Suit and the lying thieving senile old bastard of a senate leader that they also support do not.  That’s the problem, Dopes may claim support for things like Keystone or scrapping Robertscare or sealing the border but TES and Harry the roach Reid do not.  A vote for a Dope is a vote for TES and the roach doing nothing on these issues.

n     It’s probably too late for this but I’d link the roach to every Dope candidate.  He’s not a likable guy.  He’s old.  He’s white. He’s rich.  Here’s a 10 second ad.  Harry Reid was worth less than a half million dollars when he came to Caligula D.C. thirty years ago.  Now he lives in the Ritz and is worth more than 6 million.  How’d Harry get so rich on a senator’s pay?  Mark Pryor (or other Dope candidate’s name) knows.”   

Attack the Dope base.  A very simple economic message could be taken to the Dope base.

-- Juxtapose the stock market rise during TES’s rule against average take home pay for ordinary Americans.



--  Here’s the ad:  A full color screen shows TES yucking it up with all of the swells while the stock market ticker creeps up and up.  In black and white on a smaller split screen a haggard black family sits around the kitchen table under a mountain of bills discussing what they can cut while the ticker shows the decline in take home pay under TES.  The crowd roars when TES sinks a putt.  Tag line:  Had enough?

Hey Lex that’s the John Edwards two Americas you railed against.  Well I did rail against two Americas.  But that was before TES propped up his rich buddies with quantitative easing 1 through - what are we up to now - 118.  Then while he was propping up the 1% TES railed against them.  Also, under Republican monetary and other economic policy, the rising tide lifted all boats.  What the tide has done under TES is lift his selected boats while swamping the smaller boats.

Of course rebuilding the military left to rot under TES is a priority but publicly educated Americans can only keep track of three things at a time.  So there you have it, a clear path to victory, immigration, energy and an economic message to the Dope base.

Ebola czar

TES is considering naming an Ebola czar.  Don’t bother we already have one.  Inside the CDC there is an Office of Infectious Disease.  If we need someone to head up the Ebola effort maybe we should start there.  Or is adding another layer of unaccountable incompetent government bureaucracy the answer?
 
Just saw this
Hunter Biden got a drug waiver to join the Navy.  In this day and age, as the article states, that’s not too uncommon.  What probably is uncommon are two waivers, one for drugs and the other for age.  So how’d that conversation go?
Recruiter:  I need an age waiver for a guy.
Office:  How old is the guy?
Recruiter:  43.
Office:  43?  Idunno.  That’s petty old.
Recruiter:  Well, the guy’s lawyer and wants to work in Public Affairs.  What harm can it do?
Office:  Well OK, if you think so.
Recruiter:  I also need a drug waiver.
Office:  For who?
Recruiter:  The same guy.
Office:  Do we really need a 43 year old doper?
Recruiter:  Come on man.  I’m one guy down for my quota this month.
Office:  Alright.  But you owe me.
Recruiter:  Did I mention the guy has a club foot?
Office:  That’s it.  We’re done.
Recruiter:  And his last name is Biden - - as in slow Joe Biden?
Office:  Well yeah then sign him up of course.  We need more guys like him.
 
Now Hunter has been booted for testing positive for cocaine.
