Obama’s Trump Card
Obama’s Trump Card - Thomas Sowell - National Review Online
"Why Republicans seem not to understand the crucial importance of putting the same time and attention into articulating their positions as the Democrats do is one of the enduring mysteries of American politics.
It was obvious that the Democrats coordinated their talking points and catch-phrases — “social justice,” “tax cuts for the rich,” etc. — even before the overheard and recorded statements of Sen. Chuck Schumer about Democrats’ plans to repeatedly use the word “extreme” to characterize Republicans.
But how many Republican catch phrases can you remember?
Republican rhetoric tends to range from low key to no key."
Can you close your eyes and imagine a republican candidate, at any level-state-local-national, that articulated the vision of simply paying for what you bought?
With passion?
I don't think that winning elections ought to as hard as it is for us.
We need more Alan Jagers (Muskegon county commissioner) in the republican world.

There was just one problem: reality.
Even though, as critcs were eager to point out, any additional American drilling was years in the future, oil prices immediately went into free-fall.
By Friday, July 18, the price of a barrel of crude had dropped to $128.94, a 12% decrease.
A month later, on August 14, the price had fallen to $115.05.
In spectacular fashion, Bush’s academic and media critics were proven seriously wrong.
For commodities traders who’d been pricing oil based on a supposition of scarcity, the potential for millions of additional barrels on the market hit like a thunderbolt.
The simple act of putting America’s resources on the table popped the oil bubble, and a stunning price drop followed in short order.
By election day, November 4, the price of a barrel of crude had plummeted to $70.84 — a 51% decrease in less than five months.
