twitterLetter: Democrats must shift strategy to counter GOP
Friday, April 26, 2002 | 10:09 a.m.
When it comes to political campaigns, Republicans do it much better than Democrats. They understand most people are not interested in facts.
They don't want to hear a boring speech about how the GOP is funneling our money and future to the select upper crust. The Republicans have for many years known what works. The formula is simple. They label themselves as anti-tax, pro-gun, pro-life, anti-gay, and more patriotic. They wrap this stuff up in great sounding slogans and lots of flags and the flock will always buy it.
Democrats need to make it easy for the voters. How about this: Anyone who is not very wealthy and votes Republican is stupid.
