Do you have a plan for getting real conservatives elected in blue states?

Sure, join in the local/state GOP along with other conservative groups, and WORK to make ANY head way you can.

I live in Maryland -- historically one of the lousiest -- most corrupt -- blue states ever.

We now have conservatives in congressional spots held for years by rats.

It started with a pretty successful effort at getting conservative state legislators and other officials elected...not the least of which is a Republican Governor for the first time in decades -- and -- a (black) conservative Lt. Governor who is now the Republican candidate for the Senate...and leading both rat candidates by 5%-7%.

That didn't happen because people gave up on breaking the rat stranglehold that was there for SO many years.

We are far from where we want to be, but we are plodding along -- never settling -- until we can get whatever is possible, even if not foreseeable today.

Michael Steele -- with a VERY good chance of winning a US Senate seat from a State -- in my memory -- hasn't had a Republican Senator in many decades.

THAT wouldn't even had ranked as a pipe dream 6-10 years ago!

Don't give up, get involved (in addition to posting at Freerepublic) -- find like minded people and help them find a way to join others. Disheartened people don't participate and usually only need a way to get involved and not feel powerless. Be someone who finds out what and where the groups that already exist are -- find people that want a place to join in -- and put them together. One note...I'm talking about those other than the ones who don't want a chance to quit their bitching and DO something.

I gave ehrlich 2,000 in january. But I have to tell you it is time for the quitters to quit. I want them all to sign up for whatever 3rd party they want and get the heck out of here. Their constant drum beat of nay saying is poisoning the well and we are better off without them.
