The continued attacks on Palin on the two trivial issues: diva by UNNAMED aide and clothings.

Somethings are suspicious here. First this aide has never been named. Hiding or does he even exist? Next the fact that MSM ask for the Palin clothings allowance which anyone will think is trivial seems harmless but was turned into a national issue.

One thing is clear that MSM was willing to take such trivial issues big. In fact this is a consistent tactics used by BO campaign team since the primaries. As I have said before that once BO got elected, he will proceed with political cleansing in each state. And there is no way he will let Palin off. Remember at the end of the Dems primaries how feud was created in the Clinton camp forcing her to change her campaign manager? It is exactly the same tactics.

So I urge anyone to take this MSM talk with a grain of salt. It can be a trap to implode the Rep party. One got to be very careful here as BO is really not just a come and go candidate/president. We are still yet unclear of his actual motives are.

The only united message for the McCain campaign team and Rep party should just be: Palin was a good choice for VP and let her continue with her wonderful job in Alaska for now.

Although Rep lost the campaign 2008, the results are still admirable since Bush’s incumbent rating was so low.

I have to say this was much more energetic than his GOP and Presidential debates. Bravo!

John McCain in defiance Ohio

Saw this on Rasmussen Reports written by Tony Blankey. Read it almost like a thriller, especially:

Obama’s early mentor in the Alinsky method of social agitation was Mike Kruglik, whom Lizza paraphrased as saying: “(Obama) was a natural, the undisputed master of agitation, who could engage a room full of recruiting targets in a rapid-fire Socratic dialogue, nudging them to admit that they were not living up to their own standards. As with the panhandler, he could be aggressive and confrontational. With probing, sometimes personal questions, he would pinpoint the source of pain in their lives, tearing down their egos just enough before dangling a carrot of hope that they could make things better.”

A must read at Is Obama Secretly Sensible? Don’t Bet on It

This makes him more dangerous than Rev. Wright! He used other people’s pain to get his way. Think about it. He never take an issue head on but always associate his opponent with the most unwanted and painful stigma. On the Democratic party primaries, how he band other boys like Edward to make Hillary again feel the difficulty of woman candidate. With John Mccain, he stick ‘old and Bush failure’. With Palin, it was the Trooper gate incident. With MSM, he draw a line with the Iraqi war (which MSM have so fervously reported before but wanted very badly and PAINFULLY to dissociate when the war was looking harder and unsuccessful) so that they have to take his side. But most important of all, he used the economic pain on the middle and lower class of people.

I have been thinking hard about the peculiar nature of ACORN.
However, I encountered finally the most enlightening article of ACORN and its intension:

ACORN’s ultimate goal

For withholding democracy, it is a must read!

I think the McCain campaign managed to cast some doubts on Obama. However, I believe he should surprising shift gear to other more important issues and offer people a clear view of his strategy as a leader in this difficult era:

McCain is one of action. Obama is one of celebrity talk only.

And obviously this cannot be done by using talking vs talking or debate vs debate.

First, we have to diagnose how Obama remains so popular with the bailout so unpopular. For a moment look at the Democratic party today. This party really is now a very different one from when Clintons have the control. I would call it virally infected and changed forever. Now Obama’s root as a community organization with his base started in ACORN is actually a very powerful one. That give him access to the less privileged in the America society which largely includes African-Americans. Put it this way, he gave them a voice and hope. One can even say this is an extension of the redlining and subprime mortgage and then F&F to expand and keep these bubbly dream going. What makes Obama a rising star is he gave them a political voice which this group never have before. Politically, Obama has found a virgin and loyal base.
As long as the America dream can be held up for this group, its size can be expanded fast compare to other segments of society which are more divided and tend to debate among themselves. ACORN expanded fast by using this loyal base as bargaining chips with banks, legislators.

Simply put. America now has political cancer. Like all cancers, it is self-inflicted. It was largely a result of past administrations not making concerted efforts on the under-prvileged to lift them out of poverty. That leaves a big window open for someone like ACORN and Obama to sell them a bubble dream. But that energy to sustain that illusion has become a black hole.

Even many existing Democrats were taken by surprise. Just look at the Clintons. They were really taken aback mid way thru their primaries. This is why Bill Clinton is so half-hearted in supporting Obama. But it was too late. It was obivous that the other half of Dems were ‘pressured’ to give in because this cancer base is much more loyal than other support groups. I don’t even think they think about what is right or wrong, rather just whether you are part of us or not. (Yes, this is also how terrorists recruit new members but that will be another story) Frankly, I think the Clintons are gone if Obama wins this Presidency because the cancer will completely take over the Dems.

Why Obama campaign favours the internet media? Because Obama needs a second loyal base. A base which will project him into the professional middle class. However, he needs a stand which when made but can never be proven wrong either because it will not happen in our life time or no one has a clue. He found that in the left and liberals with issues like environment, wealth distribution, etc. Notice the liberals never get such loud voice under the Clintons. The way I think he did was he got his first base to echo these issues and they will do so because ACORN gave them a life. I must say this strategy work very well because so many liberals or independents who wanted these concerns heard now got an loud hailer. This I suspect are why so many celebrities are also supporting him.
It became evident to me because whenever someone from this group speaks they always quote and requote the same talking points without proper and deep history proofs or logical presentations of arguments. It is always some polls or survey numbers quoted and not scientific facts (they do quote some scientific reference but always out of context).

If one understands these are cancer cells, it will now be easy to understand why there can be so much hatred against Sarah Palin because she represents a group which will never be infected. Imagine if she unite and expand this healthy group …

One thing doctors learn about cancer is a shock therapy is needed. First the patient must be given the hard knock: you got cancer. Then he must change his life style. Years ago, doctor administer strong chemo drugs but fail because the drugs were too diversified and NOT TARGETTED to the cancer cells. Recent years cancer treatment has gotten more success by being very TARGETTED.

Politically, do we now have these conditions? Yes. By now the whole America knows there is a big economic crisis which traced back to subprime which traced back to this group of people. The shock is there. What is missing now is the target therapy.

I do not think that Obama or ACORN thought this bubble will burst so soon. Obama is now trying to distant himself from ACORN since he thinks his other loyal base is now big enough. Meanwhile this group of people although badly hit have no choice but to continue their support of the Dems congress and Obama in hoping to get a bailout because they have no OTHER hope.

So when I shout McCain should go for ACTION is he should already start activating loyal campaigners and local support in the county to help these people mediate and get local banks to help work out a fair way of pricing out the mortgage. If mortgage is not possible, then some form of social but non-welfare program like worker retraining,etc. Yes, there are a lot work to be done but they NEED NOT BE COMPLETED BEFORE NOV 4. What is important is ACTION be taken at these local levels and information be collected. These helpless people must be shown the light.

I am not advocating a social welfare system but these people need to be shown the way to work themselves out of poverty. This is direct target therapy to Obama core base. While these grassroot works are conducted, it should not be debated first. It should only suddenly be unveiled when enough momentum has gotten going. I believe words will spread fast in this group.
Then McCain can loudly bang Obama on just talking only while he took real actions. Obama will have no time no proof to rebut and react.

It is clear that the Republicans are being set up in a dilemmna by the Dems in the Congress regarding this bill. All the presidential candidates are keeping a cautious distance. For Obama this is the best action as drilling into the bailout and the dirty history will put him and Dems on a destructive path. McCain on the other hand worries about the blame of the possible aftermath if the bill is not passed.

Many Senators who come clean are trapped.

I do think this is one golden opportunity for one man to take leadership. McCain! But how can he deal with this trap? Simple like a real President.

First explain to the people. This is not a simple bill. It will be helpful for him as a senior Senator to explain item by item to the American public. Many are confused and have no idea what really is inside. Calm and educate the public. This is the opposite from what Bush is doing now: fan a panic.

Point out clearly what he and even the other Republicans would want out esp. all the pork barrel stuffs. Open up the pandora box of dirty history of how the major items have to put in now just to save the Dems mistakes in the past. For example the consistent records of the Dems in blocking the regulations for Fannie & Freddie. This step here is VERY important as it will show the public that all these years what McCain and his colleagues have been fighting for the public.

Think out loud for him as a President thinking about this emergency use of massive taxpayer’s money. He does not need to state his final stand yet. Don’t pretend to be an economy expert. Call for people with credible experience to come forward and ‘think and solve and fight’ with him. This is crucial as this is a large missing part in the whole congress decision process: congress political leaders pretending to be economy experts.

Then set forward to talk to a few economy experts esp. a few who had correctly predicted the problems years earlier just like himself who predicted the F & F problem in 2005. Talking to them will shed the light for himself how best to deploy taxpayers’ money.

All these actions only McCain can do because he is now running a campaign ie. he has direct communication channels to the public unlike his colleagues who are entangled with the debate and battle in the congress. Obama cannot do this because by opening the box, he will risk digging too much dirt for himself and the Dems.

It is not about whether he is for or against the bailout (which the Dems set as a trap by lumping into one package). This is such an unique opportunity presented to him to take the lead in calming the public and expose in one sweep all the dirt and traps laid in the ineffective congress by the Dems.

And he’s got nothing to lose. But in one scoop he can take out Obama and congress Dems.

I think this is no secret: Obama has waged one of the most expensive campaign in history even when so many people are losing jobs.

So does amount of such campaign money defines the election of American President?
