Depends on your level of decency ;-)

* Suggestion 1 
  + PROS
   + fast
   + furious
  + CONS
   + rough
   + noisy

* Suggestion 2
  + PROS fast
  + PROS furious
  + CONS rough
  + CONS noisy

You can write a function that writes the words 
"PROS" & "CONS" and bind it to a keystroke.

You can also write a function that, in the HTML exported file,
substitutes the words "PROS" & "CONS" with the appropriate class,
e.g.:

(defun gio-red-cons () ""(interactive) ()  (setq a (point-min))  
(while (< a (point-max)) (re-search-forward " PROS" nil nil )  (replace-match "<span class=\"todo TODO\">CONS<\/span>" ) (setq a (point))) )


and use it in the post-export-hook (see the manual)
to have coloured PROS and CONS
