It's a common political strategem, used by politicians the world over. It's called "Common Enemy".

The Democratic party succeeded with their "Common Enemy" strategy, in which the sitting President, his Cabinet, and the "Rich" were deemed the "Common Enemy".

Unfortunately for the Republican party, their strategem during the campaign of 2008 appeared to paraphrase Walt Kelly

"We have met the enemy and he is us."
