I rant about how dumb the republican pr machine is so let me show you how easy it can be to turn this thing around without spending all that money on consultants.
We need a new campaign with the motto: think about it!
Here is the first ad to kick it off:
A father and mother and their ten year old daughter named Julia are having a private conference with Julia's teacher. Julia has been caught giving a classmate the answers to a test and then lying about it. The teacher says that the girl Julia helped was the most popular girl in class and Julia thought that by giving her the answers to a test Julia might then be able to get into their clique. When the teacher noticed that two tests had the same answers she asked Julia about it and Julia told her she didn't know how that happened. Julia's parents tell their daughter she doesn't need the approval of other girls to be a wonderful person and that lying is not honest and often brings harm to other people. Julia looks up and with tears in here eyes asks her mother,"why is lying bad? Barack Obama lies all the time and he is President! Mom and dads and the teachers eyes get real big and they look at each other speechless and in disbelief.
The screen goes black and in white letters LYING MATTERS appears, a few seconds later WHO YOU VOTE FOR MATTERS TOO appears in white letters underneath. Finally at the bottom of the screen comes the new motto of the campaign THINK ABOUT IT!
Now you can do similar ads with themes from Benghazi, the irs, obamacare, foreign policy, and executive orders all ending with Think About It. Keep it on issues and not on personalities. This will get peoples attention and bring association to a new motto.
See! That wasn't so hard.
Now, how do we pay for the ads? By getting rid of the middlemen and the gatekeepers. The tea party needs to set up a website where anyone can submit their political ads or offer up specific election strategies. Then we could use the strategies of kick starter. Let the bigwigs and money men pick the ads they would like to run. This would harness the imagination and skill of thousands of conservatives creating a kind of public relations Borg.
Think about it.
