13. Don't Give-Up On National Security
While you are correct that National Security isn't what it was in 2004, it is what it has always been(as you point out), the bottom line, the floor. Given that Mac will argue primarily about National Security, our candidate must meet him toe to toe and beat him in that tug of war. If voters do not see our candidate as credibly strong they will not listen to the remaining arguments claiming Dems make better government. So if we have nothing to fear but fear itself, why do National Security arguments work against us time and time again? Well it is because Mac and his friends don't give-up so easily. Our argument must be strong on National Security allows for better government.

We must remember that winning this election means overwhelming the elephants, like the Lilliputians captured Gulliver. Anything less than an overwhelming victory would be a shame - which I say to anyone here unwilling to support either candidate.
