(81,127 posts)AND, couple that with the "USA Today's" "The Shutdown Party"!!!!!!!
The press is on OUR side! The memes are on OUR side! The FRAMING is on OUR side! The IMAGING is on OUR side! The MESSAGING!!! The MESSAGING is on OUR side!!!!!! WE've got this!
But even more important is that we KEEP this!
When Robert Gibbs goes on TV and says the White House just should sit back and watch. WRONG!!!!!! Now that we're winning the narrative, we have to KEEP AT IT!!!
Underscore it!
Reinforce it!
Buttress it!
Support it!
Sustain it!
Secure it!
Keep it standing strong!
Don't let this erode!
Do NOT blink!
DO NOT CAVE!!!!!!!!!!
Now that we have the advantage, the last thing we can afford to do is sit back and enjoy our "victory"! 'Cause we don't HAVE a "victory" yet!!!!!!! This is still a battle being fought - at present! In the here and now! But so far, the bad guys ARE down. What we have to do is KEEP them down. Now that they're on the floor, we need our jackbooted-feet on their throats.
Remember - these are not people. These are scorpions wanting a free ride on our backs across the river. And what should you always remember that scorpions inevitably do? Do they ever act nice and concede, or is it their nature to sting you into full paralysis and death?
