You're right, there are no "easy" programs to get into. I think most would agree that the "easiest" program to get into is your home program. I would cuddle up with your PD and express strong interest as early as possible. Get involved in research and try to publish something.
Other "easier" programs to get into, in my opinion, are programs that you rotate through as a visiting student. This is a double-edged sword b/c if you suck it up you shot your chance to hell. But my feeling on this matter was, I went to places that I may not have had a very good shot of getting into anyway, so I only had everything to gain. I think that if you rotate through mid-lower tier schools and impress the hell out of them, you'll have a decent shot at their program. This doesn't necessarily apply to top-tier places though.
I know you're probably looking for a list of easy programs to get into..but I doubt anyone will give you one since it is so subjective and different programs look for different qualities. But you can increase your chances most by publishing, expressing strong interest at home, and networking as much as possible. Good luck!
