It's even worse than it appears.

Positioning Tulsi#
  • Okay Tulsi is going to do a third party run.#
  • No one knows who or what she is. #
  • So before she has a chance to position herself, do it for her. That's straight out of the Repub playbook and it's smart.#
  • Make it so she takes votes away from Trump not the Demo.#
  • Something like this.#
  • If you like Trump, vote for Trump. Don't waste your vote on Tulsi. #
  • That would do it. #
  • Blast that message everywhere. #
  • $1 million spent today is worth $100 million after she finishes positioning herself.#
  • PS: If you haven't read about positioning you should. It's logical and fun, and explains a lot about how products work in the human mind. It's Marketing 101.#

You know those obnoxious sites that pop up dialogs when they think you're about to leave, asking you to subscribe to their email newsletter? Well that won't do for Scripting News readers who are a discerning lot, very loyal, but that wouldn't last long if I did rude stuff like that. So here I am at the bottom of the page quietly encouraging you to sign up for the nightly email. It's got everything from the previous day on Scripting, plus the contents of the linkblog and who knows what else we'll get in there. People really love it. I wish I had done it sooner. And every email has an unsub link so if you want to get out, you can, easily -- no questions asked, and no follow-ups. Go ahead and do it, you won't be sorry! :-)
