Strategy

The thing about the current Coalition leadership is that "they clearly don't do Strategy". Which means they don't know *how* to win. What they "do" are "tactics" - because they think short term and they think no-one else is paying attention.

If they did "Strategy" then they would have a *real* plan to depose our Government. And they would do these five things.

* Win over the people with their competence, charm, knowledge and smarts.

* Have a capable, trustworthy and articulate shadow ministry.

* Build a reputation of credibility and competence.

* Take a moderate but firm approach on policy.

* Always act as an alternative Government.

But the conservatives and their leaders are so angry, so thick, so conflicted and so impatient that they can't do any of this. And that's why they won't get to pull the levers anytime soon Virginia.
