2. My strategy is effective.
Edited on Sun Jun-13-04 07:03 PM by alcuno
I simply ask pointed questions in order to make people think. I'm not in it to win but to create doubt. I believe that that's all we need to do, and with this administration, it shouldn't be very difficult.

When people try to turn the conversation to Kerry or Clinton, I say that I can't worry about them because they are not the one in charge.

Remember to express doubt and transfer that doubt to others. Don't try to win with someone who has strong beliefs. Rather, use questions to get them to doubt their own beliefs. This is what defense attorneys do in the courtroom - create doubt.
