"RUNNING NEGATIVE ATTACK ADS CALLING OUT ROMNEY ON BAIN IS MEAN!!!" (as opposed to what Rmoney did at Bain to all those now-unemployed workers...)
"WE HAVE TO BE CIVIL!" (No, as a matter of fact, we don't.)
"WE HAVE TO BE BETTER THAN THEY ARE!" (like Kerry did, remember?)
"WE NEED TO TALK ABOUT THE ISSUES INSTEAD OF ATTACKING!" (and Romney's role at Bain and what it says about how he would behave as President isn't an issue?)
"WE CAN'T MAKE FUN OF ROMNEY OR CALL HIM NAMES! THAT'S CHILDISH AND FOX NEWS WILL SAY BAD THINGS ABOUT US!" (and being nice will mean they won't?)
And I have to keep saying it over and over. Never bring a Kumbaya to a gunfight! This race has bitch-slap politics right at the forefront, and if we're not giving bitch-slaps, we'll end up receiving them like Kerry did.
Aragorn gave the correct advice at Helm's Deep: "SHOW THEM NO MERCY, FOR YOU WILL RECEIVE NONE!"
