The Democrats' campaign to manufacture votes
Wednesday, April 28, 2010 at 05:59PM Think what you want to think about Rush Limbaugh and Glenn Beck, but they've hit on something important in all this hoopla surrounding Arizona, and the depiction by the left of the Tea Party as racists. The Democrats are in big trouble, as I've written about several times, in the coming elections, if all the people who don't usually bother to vote head for the polls. There's the possibility that tens of millions of extra voters will be in the game and they'll most likely hurt the Democrats.
The Democrats are desperate, so they're playing the race card big time. This desperate move is a miscalculation and it'll backfire. They need to increase the hispanic vote, the black vote, the female vote, and they have to intimidate independents by framing the alternative as a racist choice. The Dems will overplay their hand as usual, and as more people become familiar with the issues in Arizona and Texas, it'll become obvious that the charges of rampant racism are bogus and the Dems are simply playing politics. These political tactics are going to make the Dems look desperate and dishonest, moreso than they actally are. They just don't get the message. They don't yet realize that the old ploy of repeating a lie fifty times to make it true will not work when competing information is being released as quickly as they can lie.
The Republicans need to be learning from the Democrats' mistakes -- its a new game with new rules. We don't have time for this foolishness, there's a big economy that needs to be rebuilt.
Arizona,
Democrats,
