34. I think if you can get consensus on a new message then anything can happen.

The rethugs do it all the time.

If all hands are on deck and constantly reiterate the new message, then it will be fairly easy. The big problem is getting buy in on all fronts for a new message. Our party is diverse and we have a lot of individuals. Sometimes getting a standard message to stick is hard due to not all following lock step like the rethugs. This is a good thing for our party and it is why we are so diverse. We don't want a bunch of yes men. But messaging can be difficult if we can't get buy in on a new message.
