We do operate from paradigms. There is a liberal paradigm. There is a conservative paradigm. Both are based on historical realities (and perceptions) and are slow to catch up with reality. I'm hoping to see a good rebutal-ish piece to this, because I think this idea is interesting but misses the mark.... Most liberals simply do not think in terms quite this paired-down...it's close..but off.
Oddly, the prefect lead-in for a piece on how out-of-touch conservatives are is found in the closing remarks: most Americans do NOT have college degrees! Most Americans that writers for newspapers know, yes....I believe the number is about 28%. John Tantillo just published a piece on his marketing blog that links to this post and say's it's right-on. I at least agree with his assertion that both parties should be using Facts to Market (i.e. communicate) to their Target Market. (28% college grads is a fact..) This was my favorite part of the piece: "Poli-marketing dictates that when you lose an election, you take the loss as some serious data collection and scour the data for everything that it is telling you about not meeting the needs of your Target Market. Well, if people like Paul Krugman are any indication —i.e., blame the voter not the candidate— then the Democrats will be more inclined to blame Fox News and Rush Limbaugh for the losses than to see the data as a repudiation of their own agenda. So just what are Krugman and these other geniuses thinking? They’re not thinking… they’re being driven by what they want to believe —not what the data is telling them." Trackbacks
