Just keep repeating that statement, and you will be able to understand easily what they say at any given time...and you will realize why it almost always ends up sounding so similar to what their opponents are saying.
It's like selling Snake Oil to the rubes at the county fair in 1888. Just TELL them what they want to hear! ;-D
And make sure you don't get too tired, because you might slip up somewhere and say something that isn't worded quite right...or that is a bit too revealing...and if you do, then the media sharks and other predatory people who serve your opponents will leap on it and you will find it hanging like an albatros around your neck for days, weeks, months...even years!
Such is the life of a politician and a Snake Oil salesman. It's a dirty business, hazardous to both one's health and moral fiber...but think of the potential rewards of success!
