Sleeper troll.
“Don’t you think it’s about time we wake up and smell the coffee and find some winning generals and strategists ourselves? I’m sick of losing elections and playing on defense all the time.”
See my tagline. That’s why Obama won.
We did. And a lot. The point is that more people wanted socialism, unfortunately.
It is because the Communists took over the News Media long before they took control of the Democrat Party.
Losing this election may have just cost us our current “free” society.
The GOP is determined to be a minority party and the party leadership is more concerned about BS then about actually doing anything to save this country from socialism. It’s time for the GOP to get out of the way of real conservatives so we can get this nation back on track again.
I'm wondering about unintended consequences this time around. The media controlled the information, but they pulled out all the stops and went too far. Watching their reporting was like watching Toto pull back the curtain in the Wizard of Oz. Did they use up their last remaining vestiges of credibility? I wonder if that was a once in a lifetime stunt, where they couldn't do it again even if they tried.
I'm also wondering how much our top candidates learned from this year's farce and if they are ready to campaign on the real-world playing field and make the media bias work for them or at least to neutralize it by using the shocking lack of objectivity to defang the anti-American media.
Republicans like prestige -- that's why they want to be popular within the beltway. Actually holding power and pushing conservative ideas would seriously cut down on their invites to the best parties -- that's why Republicans don't mind losing.
Nope. Politicians no longer care about the people. They care about two things.
1. Getting into office.
2. Staying in office.
So why don’t you run?
Acorn fake names + democrats + low republican turn out=obama gets into office!
Tough to win elections when you won’t stand up to the MASSIVE voter frauds being perpetuated by democrats across the nation...
Tough to win elections when you’re afraid to stand on your principles because of the media attacks they will generate from a biased press.
Tough to win elections when good people will no longer run for office because of the demonizations, and the sea of absolute hate they will suffer for being “Conservative”.
Post questions to prospective RNC Chairmen:

I'm not willing to agree that the vast majority of politicians fall into that category. When that becomes the dominant force in both political parties, it'll be time to review one of my favorite Jefferson quotes. "The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants."
If that time comes, it'll be interesting - the military is primarily red-state conservatives. What will they do if their anti-American government gives them orders to act against pro-American citizens?
Hey, look, I’m not a freaking troll. I’m just sick of losing elections all the time and would like to start winning again.
If you have some ideas, do what I did and post them and let’s discuss them. It doesn’t advance the cause to hurl insults at eachother. I’ve been fighting for the conservative cause my whole life.
We lost the election because the Republicans screwed the base... plain and simple. I know several conservatives that did not vote in the last election because of the poor choices they had.
The Republican party is done at this point unless they do something to really energize the base. They need to remember that pro-gun voters gave them Congress in 1994 as a direct result of the AW ban. The Republican party did NOTHING on the gun issue. Gun owners felt abandoned and after the ban sunsetted on September 13, 2004 they walked away.
I told many Republican leaders that we’d lose Congress and the White House if they didn’t get the base and gun owners specifically rallied behind the party. They didn’t and now we have a liberal socialist majority in control of our nation. Yes, this is an “I told you so.” post.
At this point, there is only one slim chance of re-energizing the base and the window of opportinity is closing on it. If the party is to be saved, Bush must mandate some pro-gun moves through EO’s before he leaves office. Reigning in the BATFE, authorizing a general amnesty of the NFA (class 3 database), mandating that BATFE establish procedures for testing of firearms and classification of firearms and similiar stuff.
Bush will also need to do some pro-life and other conservative stance stuff as well but I’ll leave that for the people that know those subjects.
Here is my prediction... should the Republican party continue ignoring the base they will not see control of the White House or Congress in our lifetimes barring the Democrats enraging the conservative base.
Should the Republicans re-energize the base they’ll take back Congress in the next election
Mike
If this changes... bodies will start appearing..
You know.... like in Fort Marcy Park..
The Clinton murder(s) scared the pants off most all elected republicans.. so that many resigned or retired.. right after that.. i.e. Vince Foster..
The republican party ceased to be dangerous then.. as it is now.. There are cowards..
“What will they do if their anti-American government gives them orders to act against pro-American citizens?”
Nothing. That’s why Obama wants a National Police Force.
