The Rove strategy is to take your strength and make it a weakness

[Quixote1818]

For example, taking Obama's popularity and orator skills and saying he is a "celebrity" and thinks he is "Moses".

McCain's perceived strength is that he has experience and he is a "straight talker" who is honest and a maverick. Sooner or later Obama's camp is going to have to attack McCain and expose that the straight talk express is a shame. And that the so called "maverick" is a Bush clone.

I have no doubt Obama's team will make these attacks sooner or later and we should end up winning after this is done.

They have already done all the work in this You tube video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ioy90nF2anI
It just needs to be converted into something more slick and broadcast a billion times nationwide.

2. Classic AbuserU tactic. Rove never made it through college but...

...he passed Abuse 101 at AbuserU with flying colors.

How many times a week DOES he beat his wife? That's how you beat down your spouse and keep them in check if you're an abuser/control freak. Find the best thing about them and TEAR THEM DOWN about it. Ruin their self-esteem and keep them off-kilter and on the defensive.

Oh. And it works for political campaigns too - along with most Abuse 101 tactics.

UNLESS your opponent is wise to these tactics and knows how to handle them.
