The Official Republican Road Map: No

I'm not a huge fan of the "Contract with America" fanfare/comparisons, but I do recognize the value of putting your agenda front and center. I don't think the "party of 'No'" crap really plays, because the prevailing sentiment right now from a majority of Americans sure seems to be not just "no" but "oh hell no".

That's not a loser. "NO" actually plays pretty damned well.

In an upcoming mid-term fight with the wave surging, you keep the momentum building. ALSO, you pay attention to the message you were handed by the voters in the primaries (a topic of some discussion here recently!)

So this Thursday, they plan to roll out their platform, a dozen or so differentiators, with some fanfare. I want it to be full of "no." No tax increases, no more outrageous payoffs to buy votes with public funds, no implementation of Obamacare, no more strangleholds on our economic liberty, no more shoving money into the public sector at the expense of the rest of us who actually create it in the first place.

No.

Obama whines "they have no ideas. They just say "NO".

You know something, President Wonderful? "No" is one hell of a great idea.
