1. plain folks - projecting an image of being one of the common people. 2. testimonials - using well-known personalities in the hopes of identifying with some of their glamour.
3. bandwagon - giving the impression that everyone is involved, if you're not, you're missing out.
4. card-stacking - the candidate recalls all the good things done, omitting facts that would justify his defeat.
5. glittering generalities - using wide-spread universal terms that do not deal with the specific issues at hand.
6. name calling - using broad accusations and negative attacks in order to bring down the reputation of an opponent.
