I have figured it out!

[MARALE]

I know the reasons why Repubs are coming ahead when they should not be.

They lie, in many ways... I receive many emails that are lies about what we stand for and how horrible it is, what Repubs stand for and how great it is, and many untruths that make Dems look bad. People believe these lies. Rush, Hannity, Etc... I think these lies are the main reason dems don't win. We think people will not believe these lies and we ignore them. Same thing happened with Kerry, he did not refute the lies told about him and many believed. Many in America believes the Dems want to take away religion. People do not have the time to research these things to find out the truth, they are too busy working and watching TV. I also believe that there was election fraud, but we also need to get rid of these lies about the Dems.


What can we do? We need to start a email campaign of our own. We need to discredit the Right and let people know what we really stand for. We need to tell people that we don't want religion in schools because we don't know what kind of religion our children will be learning. We need to scare people because I am scared of where this country is headed. Do we have Dem talking points like the Repubs? We need to use them. We are too honest and I for one am tired of being lied about!!!

Any other ideas of what we can do? We need to stop this now.

1. Have a competition to pick 50 liberal talk show hosts

There needs to be lots of new blood all over the country for new talk show hosts, both on TV and radio. The competition could be broken out by major cities.

I'm sick of all the right wing blather on the radio.

2. Yes, that is needed

We need more Randi's and Ed's on the radio, that will help a lot! Many younger people do not listen to talk radio as much as older folk do, is there another way to reach them?

3. Other ideas

Move to the Northeast, Great Lakes or West Coast.

Discrediting the Right requires voters who believe in Liberty, and are educated on the issues. As long as the Red States have shitty educational systems, it will never happen there.

What we should be working on....

Make the Blue States Bluer - elect progressive Governors and State Legislators.

Help bankrupt the Federal Government - support more tax cuts for the wealthy, cuts in entitlements, and devolution of resources to the states.

Support Regionalization - Regional plans for Healthcare, Transportation, Education and Environmental Protection.

Wait 20 years while the Red States fall further and further behind.

Call for a Second Constitutional Convention and negotiate the right of states to seceed.

There's no other option that doesn't require the Blue States to keep funding the Red States' stupidity.

4. Actually, moving is a good idea, but not to the NE or WC.

I live in Georgia, and there's only a few states redder than here! HOWEVER...Atlanta, which is the largest population in the state, is heavily Dem. I live about an hour north of Atlanta, in a suburb of Gainesville. Fainesville has a lot of Dems too. I think a lot of new people moving into the deep red states wil dilute that color, make the states purple, and maybe even blue! From what I've seen, it's the people who move here from somewhere else that are the most reasonable and willing to look at all opinions on almost every subject. We'll never change the hard core confederat, but many more of those live in the rural areas. They don't want change unless they can go back to the 1950's, when they think everything was just great. Thank goodness, they're getting older now, and the younger opinions will take over the majority. That's who we need to influence NOW.

5. Good Luck

Just don't expect any support from me. After what Georgia did to Max Cleland, the state dropped off my list of civilized places.
