The real game is about to begin and Captain Ron Paul and the Captain for all the others have entered the middle of the field for the coin toss by the referee. by Jim ODonnell

This is a take off on an original comedy routine by Bill Cosby back in 1963. Why him? Well the both of us were born in Philadelphia, he in North Phila and I in South Phila, and we are about the same age, he 70 and I 63. Also, we both actually went to Temple University for a short period of time. Besides, I loved him then and still do.
Here is a pertinent excerpt from his famous routine called "The Coin Toss" which in his routine was between General Cornwallis of the British and General Washington of the Continental Army. Fitting that the characters are so close to what I needed for this article. Here is a link, where I obtained the text which will be pasted in below: Ink 19 :: The Coin Toss
The referee is now speaking and address both Captains:
"General Cornwallis of the British, this is General Washington of the Continental Army."
"General Washington of the Continental Army, this is General Cornwallis of the British."
"If you'd shake hands, gentlemen."
"O.K., British call the toss."
"British called heads, it is tails."
"General Washington, what are you gonna do?"
"General Washington says his troops will dress however they wish, in any color, in buckskins and coonskin caps, and hide behind the rocks and trees and shoot out at random."
"British, you will all wear bright red, all shoot at the same time, and march forward in a straight line."
I could not have made up a better description of the battle which is about to begin than the one above, thanks Bill.
Well, here we are after a great victory in the latest moneybomb but this was just part of the pre-game show, so don't get too carried away. But in line why my last article: Ron Paul Surge Real Shock & Awe now we need to consider some actual tactics.
Remember that we are now on the flanks and can shoot at anyone: Candidates, Campaign Staff and Media & Other Supporters.
Calling upon my knowledge of fine movie "Private York" staring Jimmy Stewart, he was describing to his fellow soldiers how you get a whole flock of turkeys all at once. I paraphrase him,
"Shoot the last one in line first, so they don't know you are a-commin', then you pick them off one by one until you get to the head of the flock."
So I suggest that we all begin with "Media & Other Supporters" first. I know that we should ignore them for the most part, but it will be good to give them a last parting shot before we leave. I suggest a short email like this,
For Media type people:
Bye-bye _______________, I won't be emailing you any more. You see we don't need you or the media anymore because we are now the new media. Since you soon will be without employment, I respectfully suggest that you begin to study Mandarin because the Chinese government is in great need of propagandist. You will like it over there.
For Other type supporters like Congressmen, State Officials and Military types:
Dear __________________, soon you will be tried for treason to your oath to the Constitution of the United States. But don't fear as we do not shoot traitors anymore we just send them far away to live for the rest of their lives. Wanna know where you are going? Just click on this link: Adak, AK, USA - Google Maps
These emails are respectful and short and sweet, but like a silver bullet is to the werewolf, these will be very effective. You all have my permission to cut and paste them for your use at any time. If you make up your own make sure that they are respectful but truthful.
Good luck in your shooting.
