How far will the GOP go for the Latino vote?

Mon, 02/22/2010 - 14:53

(From the Restore Fairness blog) In the 2008 Presidential Election, Republicans won only 31% of the Latino vote, down from 40% of Latino votes they had four years earlier when George Bush took office for the second time. And based on exit polls, it seems apparent that the Hispanic vote played a large part in President Obama’s Electoral College victory and win over John McCain.

How Democrats will lose their message wars

Tue, 02/02/2010 - 07:18

If you haven't yet read The Political Brain by Drew Westen, you should. It's a book, based on well-established psychological principles, on how the Democrats consistently lose the messaging wars with Republicans. In a nutshell, the book argues that Dems constantly frame their arguments in dry, coldly rational policy language while Reps use evocative, emotion-laden terms designed to prime their audience's brains.
