Certain political pundits keep promoting the notion that
negative advertising during the GOP primary not only works, but it is also good
because it helps the candidates get prepared so that when the eventual winner
faces off against President Obama, the negative attacks will be
second-nature. While the latter might
be true, the former is not. Worse yet
is that such approach could work in a short primary, it is counterproductive
the more it extends beyond Florida.
We previously asserted that the GOP has mastered the art of
snatching defeat from the jaws of victory – if the current GOP primary extends
much beyond Florida, the GOP might just continue the trend – below is brief
view of why tit may be so.
1. The Mostly Left
Wing and Hyphenated Media (MLWH) is adept at using Weapons of Mass
Disinformation (WMD) in support of the
current administration. During the
GOP primary, the candidates themselves are using WMD as friendly fire, aiding and abetting the
enemy.
2. The MLWH media’s
target market is the apathetic, uninformed and or cognitive-challenged (AUCC)
electorate. When GOP candidates use
WMD during the primary, the ads are exactly what the AUCC consumes.
3. Lack of Focus –
when the GOP candidates use WMD, whether the candidates like it or not, the
media amplifies the message so that instead of allowing them to focus on
drawing up a comparison between them and the current administration, they find
themselves on the defense, looking less than presidential.
4. Practice as in a
real game - In sports, coaches
consistently preach to their players to practice as if they are playing a real
game, so that when the game starts, they do not have to think, but only react. When the GOP candidates use WMD, they are
practicing, but not as if they were playing in a real game, quite the contrary.
