Imagine it’s the year 2020
Imagine it’s election season in 2020 … you look around the economic and political and media landscape in America — and you’re asking yourself “What Happened?”
VP Paul Ryan is Leading in all the Insta-Polls.
Ryan is considered a shoe-in after spearheading President Pence’s Ultimate Govt Diet Plan for the last 8 years. Even though Ryan’s only real accomplishment was leading American Prosperity’s many market research programs.
Ryan must be credited with figuring out exactly How to Sell the Dog Food — and making it “palatable to the majority of the people”. Afterall, the Pundit Class was stunned when Mike Pence eked out that Win in 2012 — given how he insisted on running on the GOP original slogan: Time to Deconstruct Run-away Government.
With that surprise upset-win, which sent Obama packing, VP Paul Ryan seized the opportunity to get out of the number-crunching business, and move into the world of high-octane Messaging …
Who knew that an Ultra-Conservative — turned Marketing Guru — could actually become the “Leader of the Free-Market World“?
The 2020 Polls are ticking …

Is Voinovich just the first brick to Fall from GOP’s Stonewalling Rhetoric?
There is a crack daylight, that may topple the Republican’s Wall of Inaction.
Voinovich breaks with GOP to push for small-business incentives
Lori Montgomery, Washington Post Staff — Sept 10, 2010
Retiring Sen. George Voinovich (R-Ohio) said he plans to help push a package of small-business incentives through the Senate next week, a move that would give President Obama and congressional Democrats a key victory on the economy in the final weeks before the November midterm elections.
In an interview, Voinovich said he could no longer support Republican efforts to delay the measure in hopes of winning the right to offer additional amendments. Most of the proposed GOP amendments “didn’t have anything to do with the bill” anyway, Voinovich said, and amounted merely to partisan “messaging.”
“We don’t have time for messaging,” Voinovich said. “We don’t have time anymore. This country is really hurting.”
Finally a Republican Senator with some Integrity, who is willing work for the folks, that Voted him into Office (instead of working against their interests, for his own gain …)

CPAC generates some New Talking Points — Will Dems respond in kind?
You got to give the Conversatives credit.
They know how to make the most of an Opportunity. They know how to rally their members.
AND Conservatives know how to boil down their Ideas into simple Talking Points, that they can easily repeat, and easily pawn off on their Independent friends, neighbors, and acquaintances.
Short, sweet, and to the point. Agree, or Disagree, one thing about Conservatives — you always know where they stand. And you usually know Why, too.
As this year’s Conservative Rally CPAC, winds to a close, some New Talking Points have emerged.
Question is, Will Dems sit idlely by, saying “Oh that’s nice. Good for them,” or will Dems take note, and respond forcefully, factually, and with good humor, to the “War for Hearts and Minds” that is about to take place?
