What is the best "psychological warfare" to use against Repubs ??

In my opinion, it should be "class warfare". Since they are already scared to death of terrorism, why not send them over the edge? :) Not only would it be good politics for Democrats, but it would constipate the Republicans. They would not know whether to shit or go blind.

First of all, we should talk up the minimum wage. But not just a .50-1.00 raise but a 3.00 increase in the minimum wage, which is about where it should be anyway. Also, we should talk about the right of every American to be able to go to the Dr. if he/she gets sick.

Then we could talk about balancing the budget and raising the taxes on those corporations that take their jobs overseas and expect taxbreaks for their treason. The tax could take the form of a tariff on all products they bring back into this country. They should make less producing their products overseas than they would make producing them in this country. It's not an income tax. It a "protective tariff" to protect the workers of this country.

Also, we should declare a crackdown on all corporate welfare. No longer will a middle-class worker pay a higher percentage of taxes than the corporations that get all the tax laws and tax breaks in their favor.

Finally, we should push for a national holiday for presidential elections and overall reform of our electoral system. They have stolen enough elections. People should not have to stand in lines for six hours because of Republican shenanigans of challenging the citizens of this country by accusing them of being illegal aliens intent on voting in the evil Democrats.

Any more thoughts on how to drive them crazy???
