What wedge issues can Democrats use to divide the Republican Party? |
|
Here are a few I can think of:
Term limits (now that the Democrats are likely to remain in the minority for a while, they should embrace term limits).
MFN status for China -- The Republicans want to give the last major Communist power on earth favored trade status. The Dems ought to have a field day with this.
Farm subsidies -- A lot of Republican free marketers absolutely loath subsidies of any kind.

I say end them, but patronizing the Iowans may be an electoral necessity.

5. End farm subsidies for agribusiness; boost subsidies for family farms |
|
Agribusiness = Republican contributors Family farmer = the little guy, and a potential Democrat

A good chunk of farmland in this county is unployed year after year while government checks are cashed.
I personally know people doing the cashing.
Seriously, subsidies are alive and well.

53. Abortion keeps the population of DEMOCRATS down |
|
Edited on Fri Nov-05-04 05:26 PM by fed2dneck
Abortion is necessary to keep the population of minorities down.
Reframe abortion as genocide against not only minorities, but all poor people (the poor seek more abortions than the rich), and you'll expose Rethugs as the genocidal maniacs they are.
The rethugs may have gotten their alleged majority not just due to fraud, but also because the abortion rate among poor women has gotten so high it's decimated the population of African-Americans, who now are only the second largest minority, when before they were the largest. We all know that blacks are Democrats' most loyal supporters as a group. We know blacks, Latinos, and Native Americans are the groups most beset by poverty, and poor people tend to identify with the Democrats.
I think we've been shooting ourselves in the foot with a pro-choice position on abortion. It has come at the expense of the population of Democratic voters.

6. Split the libertarians off from the fundies |
|
Libertarians don't want the government in their bedrooms any more than they want it in their pocketbooks. On that grounds alone, the fundies may drive them away.
Libertarians and fundies also split on privatization. The fundies' notion of privatization is to have the government paying *them* for parochial schools, faith-based social services, etc. The libertarians' objective is to cut taxes and government services entirely.
The libertarians' great buzz-word is "liberty." With fundies in the drivers' seat, they ain't going to get a lot of that.

20. That's one of the best ideas I've heard, yet..... |
|
the libertarians are usually associated with the repubbies, but if you look at sites like freerepublic, every time a mention of libertarians comes up, they are vilified as drug loving perverts.
As a libertarian leaning type myself, I think there is fertile ground in trying to woo libs over to the progressive side. The problem is to isolate them from the social "programs", like income redistribution, and progressive taxation, that would turn them off. That might be a pretty tall order.

30. We don't have to actually bring the libertarians to our side |
|
We just have to pull them away from the Republicans.
Several years ago, before DU was born and when I'd been reading far too much Slashdot, I had a vision of a future in which the Republican and Democratic Parties were both gone and the country consisted of nothing but libertarians on the right and anarcho-syndicalists on the left. A future in which all these stupid arguments about religion and war-mongering were a dead issue and the major political disputes turned on where to draw the line between individual rights and community interests.
(In Slashdot terms, it would be the difference between Eric Raymond and Richard Stallman.)
It could happen yet -- and I'd bet a lot of libertarians wouldn't mind working with us to help get there.

I think this is the best idea -- push for federalism, actually. The fundies never wanted small government -- they want big christian government -- which is why they make great partners with corpo-fascists. And corpo-fascists are not libertarians either.
We could get a long way if people actually understood what the political spectrum actually looks like.

that's the basic concept.
What issues are in there?
I think the 10 commandments are a good place to start. should they be illegal?? money people would say no, fundies would say yes.
Right now, only 3 commandments are illegal (murder, theft, and lieing -- sometimes).... is there one of the other commandments we would want to push?

13. Three words: SAVE SOCIAL SECURITY |
|
Look at the demographics of people who voted for Bush. According to the exit polls Bush gained 7% among seniors since 2000. Bush has made it clear he intends to privatize Social Security. If we stay on message, we can easily siphon off enough of those seniors to win.

The problem is that none of the privatization schemes the Republicans are likely to propose will touch the benefits of current retirees. And a lot of younger voters don't expect social security to be around for them anyway.

48. I agree. We need to STAND for something. How about... |

1. Better Prescription insurance. (seniors will vote for that) Better yet...Be FOR lowering cost of perscriptions...attack the drug companies Be FOR getting prescriptions from Canada etc. Be FOR getting large reduced group rates like HMO's and Vets have.
2. Be positive...Instead of being against parochial schools...Be FOR saving public Education.
3. How about a 527(?) group that educates the scared Fundies to the fact that Democrats DON'T want to take away your guns.
HERE'S HOW WE CAN GET SOME OF THOSE ANTI-ABORTION VOTES
4. Draw attention to the fact that if they take away a womans right to an abortion...all those MILLIONS of unwanted babies will be born into poverty and be on WELFARE for the rest of their lives... VERY EXPENSIVE.
5. Whisper loudly in their ear...WARNING...All those SAVED babies will probably grow up to be Democrats...now we wouldn't want that, would we?
6. Now don't flame me...I'm trying to be realistic and get Democrats in the White house. Be active in passing state laws (in every state)that BANS Gay marriage but allows for domestic partnership. (That's a good compromise) That way it will no longer be a WEDGE issue to get Republicans to the poll in 2008. Promise Gays we will do everything we can to help them get as many right as we can. Right now the most important thing we can do for them is to get back into the White House.
OK...now you can flame away while I go and get dinner.

21. nope, target state ballot initatives that can draw dems to the polls |
|
just like the right wing used anti-gay marriage ballot initatives.
it will require a state by state approach to get on to the ballot plebescites that draw out liberals and moderates to vote on election day.
legalize pot, raise the speed limit to 85, no seatbelt laws, allow smoking in bars, etc., target those behavioral things that are libertarian at heart and ride them in the polls.
down here in georgia in 2002, the gop challenger won the governor's seat because he promised to repeal the motorcycle helmet law and bikers flocked to the polls and help sonny perdue beat a heavily favored democratic incumbent.
the most important things that happened in the election besides the national campaigns were the texas redistricting scheme that cost the house democrats 3-5 seats, and the 11 ballot inititives on gay marriage. these alone were small potatoes, but they forced democrats to the wall and brought out the gop supporters.
as far as tactics go one could produce inititives so outrageous that even right wingers would not support them, thus placing the gop in the position of agreeing with progressives and blurring the lines between them.
plans within plans within plans.
never, ever forget this: all warfare is based upon deception.
this time out, the GOP had better tacticians.

29. Huge Deficit = "Birth Tax" on our children |
|
"As a responsible, moral person who cares for the welfare of my family, I cannot stand the thought of imposing a "Birth Tax" on my children and grandchildren. The "play now, pay later republicans" were too irresponsible and undisciplined to control their spending, and left my children to pay the bill." Sound Good? If the republicans want to do away with the "death tax", we should want to get rid of the "birth tax". :smile:
There was a long thread this morning about how we need to learn "republi-speak" and the "birth tax" was one suggestion. Thought it was pretty good!

And we'll be helping them make the case for this. They'll be out there saying, we have to cut <insert program here> because we don't want the next generation to have to pay the "Birth Tax".

The pope has condemned both abortion and the death penalty. Those catholic voters who voted for Bush over abortion should have this hypocrisy shouted to them every day.
And I think that all catholic members of DU (not one myself) should talk to their priests and bishops and ask them to explain this double standard.

HUGE wedge issue, and we get to turn religion to our advantage.
In particular, fundies are only a minority of Repub voters, though they have inordinate influence in the party.
On the other hand, libertarians and moderate republicans in NE and Midwest (and west coast?) are really really turned off by the religious right stuff. Many don't know to what extent Bush is a religious right guy.
I say, push this issue as hard as we can. NOT anti-religion, but FOR principle of firm separation of church and state.
Plus, it's the right thing to do.

Fiscal responsibility. In fact we've already taken that issue away from them for the most part. You don't hear "tax and spend liberal" very much any more because Clinton took that issue away from them in a huge way and Bush has managed to destroy it as an issue for at least the next four years.
Reagan talked about a balanced budget all the time but never did anything about it. Clinton not only balanced the budget but gave us a surplus and for the first time in ages we actually began to pay down the national debt.
Fiscal responsibility and a balanced budget is a no brainer.

Not really -
but this election has painted Bush into something of a corner. He won because he promised his fundie cult "core" that he would act on "moral" issues. It's the same bait and switch the Republicans have been pulling on the Religious Right for years - promise them social change and act on things like - oh, social security privitization, "fixing" the tax code (by lowering capital gains taxes and giving tax breaks to the wealthy), tort reform, expanding the corporate state, etc. etc.
Sooner or later Bush will have to deliver - or the people that put him over the top this time around won't show up to vote next time. And when he does deliver, he'll split up the Republican coalition. He'll lose the Libertarians, the fiscal Conservatives, the social moderates.
