Tactical Assault Project
By Tom Ball

Announcing the launch of the PoliticalStrategy.org "Tactical Assault Project".

The project will be an ongoing effort to provide a 'handbook' of political tactics being used -- and for use -- in the ongoing battle for political and ideological superiority.

Tactics: Specific actions that you can take to debate, attack, defend or otherwise promote your agenda. They are the actions used to execute or advance the overall strategy or agenda of an organization, political party, or ideology. They can be used at every level of political battle. Some are clever. Some are commonsense. And some are downright despicable. The ones you choose to use are up to you. In any event, your knowledge of such tactics is critical to your ultimate defense and rebuttal of the opposition.

As tutorials and analyses are created, they will be cataloged here for easy reference. A permanent link will be provided in the left column.
