How can we beat the Big Bad Bush?
Edited on Fri Dec-12-03 07:56 PM by Independent429
Please post any ideas you have for beating Bush in November. They may include strategies, messages, issues, etc. but please do not say assassinate him!

I'll start:
MASSIVE VOTER REGISTRATION!!!
We should get as many new people to vote in this election as possible. We find just about anybody we can who is not loyal to Bush and encourage them to vote with us. These people could be young people, elderly, or anyone who is not planning on voting. Set up registration at universities and high schools and anywhere else. Encourage any progressive/moderate/conservative/socialist/whatever that is unhappy with Bush and encourage them to participate in the general election.

your ideas:

1. Do Not nominate Dean!
This is why the GOP has been funding Dean's campaign since the summer.

2. but follow Dean's example!
fire up the grass roots and use the Internet and always make the supporters feel empowered and inspired

I think his success is due to the process more than the guy

7. This really has to be about inclusion
rally the base but expand the base, even if just temporarily for this election

10. haha, that's an old Republican tactic
the R groups back home always call up every registered R and ask if they need a ride. I know firsthand because I used to be registered R.
