And I broke with my own little rule last year and “volunteered” to work for the local Republican Party. As did several teenagers and non activists I knew, and encouraged to get involved.

My after action report?
Pseudo Union type system run by paid operatives, all deceptive, liars and cheats.Snake oil salesmen.If they depended upon repeat business, they would have failed, as they did, obviously.
Wholly dishonest and definitely nothing I will ever associate myself with again.

I agree with the Republican Party Platform.

It's just that few to none of the paid leaders in the local volunteer “organization” seemed to pay any attention to any Republican ideals or goals, except raising money by any means.
And most of the candidates acted the same.

You should seek out some local TEA Party activists and ask for an honest evaluation of your associations.
It won't be pretty, but you might find more support from local citizens who are conservatives who trend Republican, if you actually conduct yourselves as Republicans.

Sorry if I sound bitter, but there seems to be some sort of mental block in the minds of the GOPers I encountered against conducting themselves in an honest and open manner.
Must be the prolonged proximity to politicians.

I’m lucky in that the GOP Chair we just elected is a TEA Party person. Our group is small, and most of those active are Tea-partiers. The old guard is honorable, but just too old to do much anymore. And they really just can’t comprehend how bad things are. We are on the verge of a communist take-over. It’s too shocking for most to believe.
