i'm on a run of super rags.. and trying to figure out how to win without cards.

I see a lot of people attack pots after they raise preflop when there are rags on the board. I would say this is a good time to take away there pots, because they probably don't have a pair...

would a re-raise be a good idea to try every once in a while? or is that just too wild of a play...

Live games: Bad idea to continually bluff with crap.

Tornies: Required play.

Doggz is right. Don't get committed to them in a live game, but if you have to play them in a tourney setting, try this: Play very tightly for about 3-4 orbits (assuming the blinds won't eat you up)

Good players will take note of this... then use your image to "create" stronger hands for yourself. Raise your rags preflop. Continue to push them until you think you have to give them up.

One of the big keys here is to not let your hands get to showdown... it'll blow your mystique.
