just thinking about this.

They keep hammering us on crap they're never going to change, we can fire back with social issues we've been changing, like health care, social welfare, environmental and scientific problems.

the message, pretty much, would be, they can have their culture, but we're doing this for our entire society.

1. A good old class war is in order...
They've been crying about populism being "class warfare".

Well, they have a penchant for war, so let's give it to 'em.

10 million Wal-Mart moms is one helluva ground force.

6. I think we need to add religion to the mix
We need to get the various religious groups to fight against each other....the evangelicals want the Jews out, they hate the Muslims, etc...and generally want ONLY their narrow beliefs to be the official religion of the US.

And we need to scare the bejesus out of the more moderative conservatives who we know are already a little wary of how radical the Conservatives have become. They may be religious...but not THAT religious.
