I would avoid a pill pusher too...too unstable to get up close and personal to. She is freaky looking and freaky acting and only reason she is married to McCain is because he is rich. Says a lot about Cindy. Then McCain hires Palin as his VP running mate. Again, dirty little tactic to sway the women voters and a a true INSULT to all woman voters because McCain thinks he can sway you because he thinks women are "swayable". talk about a slap in the face that leaves a big red mark !

Obama's strategy is to play on the emotions of the people. He begins with his position by complaining about the obvious and he puts a lot of feeling into it as if he and every American are fed up.

Then he hits it up with his solution of change being needed but he gives no specifics just theories. But the fact that he already emotionally charged the listener had the listener interested was the key point because it sounded like he had an answer but really didn't have an answer.

He uses the ("I am like you") strategy so the audience is thinking the following...
"Wow. Obama knows what I am feeling! He knows!"

So, in effect, it sounds like Obama has addressed the very issues that have affected the common man but in reality he just began each position by playing with the audience emotions first. Once he has their emotions hooked, he has hit a homerun... he can BS all he wants and it would sound like a solution.

That is his tactic on every issue.
