8. We Rev Up OUR Noise Machine

Every one of our candidates should be HAMMERING the same thing: WE tried to do the right thing, but Moscow Mitch stepped in and subverted the will of the people. Not only are they NOT draining the swamp, they're aiding and abetting corruption. Republicans put Party over country and Party over the rule of law. The Party of Russians. You know, that type of thing.

If we sit back and allow the media and the right-wingers to scream, "VINDICATION!!! HE'S INNOCENT!!!" then we deserve to lose. The Democrats need to make him wear this impeachment albatross around his neck for the ENTIRE campaign, and we need to tar and feather Republican Senators as co-conspirators. That's how we win.

Come to think of it, why not just run the Republican playbook from the 2000 election after THEY impeached Clinton with no hope of getting a conviction in the Senate. Turn their talking points back on them.
