As my friend Emma Burnette points out, the GOP's selection of "class warfare" as a topos was undoubtedly focus-grouped up the ying-yang, but may very well backfire on them.
Especially if the 99% can turn it on them (see the Aristotelean topos of "turning the tables" (#6): "Another line is to apply to the other speaker what he has said against yourself."). Warren Buffett has already begun to do some of this work on our behalf.
