Do we have an equivalent of Frank Luntz?
Who tries to appear independent on T.V. while simultaneously manipulating the messages (as with his "undecided" voters). He also tests words and phrases with focus-groups--I remember he had some key words to use vs. Gray Davis and suggested "betrayal" was a good one for Kerry.

If we don't have one, I volunteer. My first advice:


Whenever discussing George W. Bush, whether it be the economy, the war in Iraq, the Patriot Act, or any other policy area, be sure to include the phrase "Total fucking loser" in your analysis. It will capture the attention of undecided voters!

1. you mean an ambiguously gay
partisan hack employed by the networks pretending to be honest? No, not that I can think of.

2. I don't know of anyone with a bad hair piece like that
and being gay to go along with it! So I would say NO we do not!
