And I’m a hardened conservative who spent 8 long years in th trenches of conservative activism.

And was that "activism" a group in search of people to follow them? Do you see the difference?

“And was that “activism” a group in search of people to follow them?”

By not giving them something the mentally grab on to, you haven’t given them anything to follow.

And the problem with “groups of people” is most of the time you only get one shot at them and then the write you off.

I’mnot saying the TP’s aren’t a good idea, I’m not saying the effot isn’t worthwhile, I’m looking for the easy to grasp message you’re trying to convey.

You've been artound this site almost as long as I. Let me give you an example.

Back in the days of the 2000 election debacle the Free Republic Network decided to help organize and support a national month of protests in support of GWB. That effort ended up well, we had over 250 events across the country and eventually GWB was inaugurated.

But we knew we needed a concise message to get our point across in a way that everyone could could understand. One of members and a good friend of mine, you may remember him as "Registered", designed a graphic that accomplished this.

That's what this movement needs.
