Learning From the Masters

Caught in the Spin Cycle: Politics & Power: vanityfair.com

Great Michael Wolff piece in Vanity Fair about how the GOP runs things by using a marketing approach rather than a political one. I’ve long felt that the GOP is better at marketing than the Democrats. For at least 25 years.

The illustration that accompanies the article is fantastic.

    You know I’ve worked on political campaigns, studied political marketing in college and worked on political stuff with the Sierra Club and I just can’t look any more. The thing that gets me more than anything that the rights marketing, branding and propaganda are piss poor and yet they are miles ahead of the left and mass media rarely questions any of it.

    Wow, that last one of mine is really full of typo’s.

    Don’t worry, your queen Hillary will be elected. The marketing of ‘the right’ will not matter.
