Glenn Reynolds promotes high-cost, low-payoff political tactics. Stupid or vain?

Putative law professor Glenn Reynolds writes (pajamasmedia.com/instapundit/96580):

SO LAST WEEK READER RYAN BLEEK WROTE, asking what he could do to fight big government plans, given that he lives in an uncompetitive Congressional district. Various readers chimed in. Here’s some advice.. [much deleted] ...I think the most important lesson is to stay engaged, and don’t be silenced.

1. The "much deleted" consists of six ideas from his readers, and all of them are high-cost (in terms of time and effort) and low-payoff. That doesn't mean that some people have to do them to some extent in order to achieve their goals: knocking on doors, voting, and all the rest are vital. However, they don't use leverage, in which a smaller amount of force can be used to have a greater impact.

2. A plan that does use leverage is my question authority plan. If you don't know about that, please go take a look and compare it to what Glenn Reynolds is promoting. The plans he promotes would require tens of thousands of people and even then might not be effective; my plan would require only a handful of smart, experienced people and would be highly effective to extremely effective depending on the questions on the questioners.

3. Back in April of last year, Glenn Reynolds promoted something similar to my plan. I believe that's the first and only time he's promoted something in line with my ideas. Did he forget about the plan he promoted? Does he think knocking on 500 doors a day is more effective than embarrassing a politician in an intellectual fashion on video? Does he think that doing things in a less effective way is OK just as long as he doesn't acknowledge a plan I promote? On a more cynical note, does he realize that the tea parties would flub asking tough questions, and he wants to give them something to keep them busy?

Write him and ask.

P.S. Regarding the "don’t be silenced" bit, several of his link targets have tried to silence me, and someone from his university and his city gave me some unsolicited advice along the same lines.
