I know why they are winning.
First, they have sold themselves as the hardheaded people unmoved by sentimentality that will look out for our best interests against the Muslim world that wants to destroy us.

They have also defined us as the Party that will blame America First and no matter what our reasoning,we are constantly put in the position of defending ourselves as people who will not use American power to further American intersts.

When they commit major crimes at home and abroad, pointing those out actually strengthens their image as those who are willing to face criticism to stand up for America.

I think the only way this spell will be broken is a for a major catastrophe to occur either in our economy or in the war abroad or for someone from the inside willing to come forward and spill the beans.

1. Fool Some Of The People Some Of The Time
They are not winning. They have lost.

Believe in your self. Believe in your position. Define your position and state your position in _your_ terms.

You win.

5. Damn straight
The truth is that they do have a powerful metaphor, a powerful frame with which to sell their load of crap. But we Decmorats have plenty of popular ideas. In fact our way of running the government is closer to what America want's. We just need to continue explaining it to our fellow man.

2. As long as people remain
unconscious, they will continue to win. That includes republicans, democrats, and others. The need of our time is for people to wake up.

6. They control corporate media covering for their crimes, lies, incompetence
profiteering, greed and thievery.

That is the ONLY reason they are in power today.
