It isn't rocket science. Pat Buchanan laid it out for the Republicans back in the late 60's. He knew that the coalition on the right was shrinking and would continue to shrink because the actual policies on the right are for the benefit of a very narrow group of people. You keep you base riled up with fear and anger, then you suppress and demoralize the voters you oppose. That is exactly what right wingers have been doing ever since. They know there are more people who support Democratic policies so they lie, they gerrymander, they cheat, and they smear.

Flake is on the fainting couch but that bastard knows how it works.
