The Dems need to simplify their message for the coming election and build it around a healthy economic nationalism and populism. In today's AP headlines AP/IPSOS poll cites a new low in polling on the direction for America at 25%. Democrats need to hit hard and simply on the concerns of the electorate. The quote above by a woman from Texas says it all. "We need to get out of war, get our economy back up, quit spending money outside of America and bring it here," It's about the war, it's about our national priorities and needs, and about building a strong and secure national life and ending costly foreign occupation. It's about taking care of our own. Period.. That's a message that will win.
