If my yard sign poll meant anything Jones wins by a landslide. He's all over. I've seen one Roy Moore sign actually on someone's property (though plenty illegally placed on highways or on ramps)

Loam! posted:The constant drumbeat of Democrats can do no good is getting old . Looks like the liberal media is at it again. If you watch the video, you'll see that Jones said he would only be carrying a gun from the deer stand because he's a vegan environmentalist hippie and he's forcibly grabbing guns from Real American Hunters. I have to admit, it's a bold strategy but it seems a bit misguided.

Handsome Ralph posted:It's a plot point in so many movies and shows because it's a very old and very common counter intelligence technique. The most dramatic example from the real world is probably the Battle of Midway. Prior to the battle, the US Navy was aware of Japanese plans for a major offensive but wasn't sure of the target. HYPO, the Navy's signals intelligence unit in Hawaii, had broken the primary `most secure' cryptographic protocol used by the IJN, known as JN-25 in the US, but in addition to the mechanical encryption (which they'd broken) the IJN used codewords for ships, bases, and so on. So the Navy knew the IJN's target was `AF' but they didn't know what `AF' was. As a result of traffic analysis and some guesswork they deduced a shortlist of probable targets, with Midway being at the top of the list. They therefore had a radio station on Midway transmit a message in the clear (that is, unencrypted) complaining that the garrison was running low on fresh water. HYPO then watched the JN-25 traffic and sure enough someone in the IJN sent the message that AF was having water problems, and the USN moved to set a trap for the IJN at Midway.

It doesn't have to be "We're losing" It can be "The last push to prevent a pedophile in the US Senate" Or something along those lines. Such a headline would communicate two things: 1- It's a close race (which is accurate) and every vote will count 2- There's a fuckload at stake Basically you want to instill hope combined with a sense of urgency in people if you want them to get out to vote.
