I almost totally forgot one of my favorites. This won't work for most of you, though. If you're an atheist, though, you can make great use of this. Start blaming god for things. Here's an example from the previous election:
Shmokes: I blame god for Bush's victory. If he hadn't given Bush all those hurricanes in Florida he never would have had an excuse to swoop in to save the day. He sent one, but saw that Bush's numbers were still pretty wobbly, so he sent another. And another. And another for good measure.
Other Person: You don't even believe in god!
Shmokes: That doesn't mean she doesn't exist.
