Brilliant GOP "no leader" tactic

Brilliance on the GOP's part, and you guys are walking right into it.

Wow, the GOP has gone from being complete moronic tools to "Brilliance" in less than 24 months?

:eek:

Frankly, I think there is another, much more plausible explaination:

Repubs Have No Leadership.
 
I'm pasting my response from another thread because it's a good one. The critique was that the GOP has no leader, thus dooming it to lose to Obama. This is a pure tactic, and a brilliant one: Focus the target of our voters, blur the focus of theirs. Guerrilla warfare- voting style!

"Right now, for the GOP, YES it is (smart to not have a leader). See, unlike libtards, conservatives are independent and don't want feet to bow and worship. Our movement is a personal one. It's about the individual, not the savior. Providing a declared leader right now would be wrong, because it would send the message that we need to adhere to and become like this person. As Obama zombies have done.

The right is playing this perfect. Let our people figure out on their own who we are, what we believe in. Let individuals express themselves without being told by a savior what to do or think. This also gives the left a less defined target.

And THAT is the brilliance of what the right is doing. By not providing a defined target, the left is simply targeting the mass of individuals, like the tea party, and like the pro-border crowd. The more the ignorant left targets the masses, instead of a "leader", the more fuel they add to the movement on the right. See the brilliant tactic this provides? The left is desperately in attack mode, and their only targets are PRIVATE citizens, such as the Tea Party people, Limbaugh, Beck, but NO particular politician. Even Palin is now a private citizen. That is a brilliant political tactic, creating an us vs them mentality. Not a our guy vs their guy mentality.

Because criticizing "our guy" is a lot less personal than criticizing "us". Right now, the right feels the attacks from the left as an attack on "us" because we have no leader. And the masses are growing angrier and more motivated as a result. You lefties have no idea how much of a trap you've walked into.

So, let MSNBC and the left keep harping that the GOP had no leader. Then, follow that with yet another attack on the masses of the right. Keep criticizing the whole group, calling the movement racist, xenophobic, ignorant. Keep using that broad brush. It's fueling a massive backfire.

Whereas the right's attacks are squarely focused on Obama. Which you lefties take less personal, because it's "him", not "you all" that we are attacking. And when voting time comes around, our masses have an exact opponent, Obama, to vote against, while you guys are a bit less offended, and a bit less focused on any individual target but rather just a movement. Voter apathy will result on the left, assuming that your savior will win because "They GOP has no leader".

At that point, it won't matter. The left will have angered the masses so much, they'll vote for any generic conservative only to defeat Obama, while the left will not have a specific target (as the idea of W. Bush was in 08) to motivate them to get out and vote against.

Brilliance on the GOP's part, and you guys are walking right into it."

Now you have let the cat out of the bag.

So, now that they know, what will be their strategy?

Perhaps they will stop attacking Teaparty people and begin reacting to teaparty concerns.
I can just see Obama and the democrat congress repealing healthcare, or dropping the mandate. Maybe pushing a flat tax and elimination of IRS and progressive tax. Reducing size of government and eliminating waste could get them all re-elected.
If they would do this, even I would vote to re-elect.
 
Their previous picks haven't worked out too well. I agree, no leader is probably the best tactic for now, but after the midterms some leadership will start to emerge.

"Complete moronic tools" is in the eyes of the beholder. The GOP made some mistakes when in power, yes. But in what regards? The war? Anyone in power would suffer from having to deal with 9/11 and a dictator outright lying about possessing WMD's. The economy? It's well known that the liberal housing push through threats of racism created most of that bubble, Bush actually tried to stop it in early 00's, but Barney Franke, Clinton, etc, kept pushing it. That one lays right on the left's shoulders, and you are all in denial of it.

Um....environment? You guys are the "moronic tools" who bought into a hoax, not us. What next?

And yes, you are right, Repubs have no leadership right now, and they shouldn't. It's a perfect political strategy, and thankfully, liberals are too stupid and brain-drunk obsessed with Lord Obama to see the trap that has been set hahaha!

You seem to believe that since I think the Republicans were morons less than 24 months ago (losing the Executive Branch to a complete political novice outside socialist circles in Chicago, and both houses of congress) that the dems are much better stewards of government: They're not. They're just marginally better than morons.
 
I agree. I believe it started in the early 90s with Newt Gingrich and has grown to the point where compromise is considered failure. A Win-win proposal is discarded because it lets the other guy win too.
24 hour news and internet boards such as this do not help the situation. Any politician who reaches accross the aisle is instantly attacked and thousands or irate callers are on him within hours.

i remember a few years ago....Tom Daschle was commenting how he cant believe the attitude of these guys in congress now....he was saying that he and Trent Lott would have disagreements that turned heated by the end of the session....but they would go out to dinner and relax and talk and come to an agreement they both could live with and the next day the rest of the guys thought it was agreeable also....now he said....these guys ...forget it...and he was saying the Democrats are just as bad as the Republicans....to much animosity.....one of the other commentators blamed this on who he thought was controlling the parties thus Congress.....the Far Right and Far Left....they are so far apart they cant agree on the best way to make a ham sandwich.....and it just leads to name calling and finger pointing....if this does not stop....we aint going no where any time soon....and i for one would love to see 60 fucking million jobs be created this year....if people are working this country can move mountains....but with these guys....:doubt:
