We will over time see if Sarah Palin is the right person to lead a revitalized Tea Party, but I'm already convinced that she is the right person to keep Tea Party conservatives focused for the long term. We have not won the war for freedom, just the first open battle with what used to be the government of the people, by the people, and for the people. Palin gets that, and when Americans listen to her they recognize the truth too.

Tea Party energy is at risk of dissipating due to the lack of a pressing goal to work towards. no no NO - we're here to stay!

The job just started. Turn the attention to 2012 and ridding the country of Zero and the rest of the Rhinos.

If I lived in South Carolina I wouldn’t stop until 2014 when Lindsey Graham is up for election.

I would think that Mr. Roberson might benefit greatly by attending some regular Tea Party group meetings before trying to write a story about what we should be doing to keep the mojo going.

The first bullet item on the new agenda is the Senate with 22 Dems and 9 Pubbies on the block. Most of the Pubbies are RINOs if that is any indication on where the Tea Parties are focused.

The second is naturally Obama and Hitlery. Both have enough baggage to require cramming a 747 baggage compartment for either to make a move across the street. Now that the Tea Parties have the attention of the media, local, national and world, it will be far easier to get an unfiltered accounting to the public.

Third will be the continuation of State and local races with a special emphasis on educating the voters of Judges in elected positions and their records. We even need more focus on the appointed judges with a look into instigating impeachment proceedings on those who use the bench for one man legislatorships. Here in the City of Jacksonville, we are still a bit busy with Mayoral and other races coming up in March for the primaries and elections in April. Again, RINOs are target #1.

Fourth will be to make a run again at the missed opportunities of the 2010 mid-terms in addition to other low hanging fruit possibly with an opportunity to go for a veto proof congress if for some reason Obama makes it for another term. The redistricting before 2012 will be a very important factor.

Fifth; many of the local groups have been in a 24/7 battle since the rallying cry from Rick Santelli in February 2009. They have organized, grown and been on the front lines for 2010 and slowing the Obama freight train wherever they could. Now it is time for families, reflection and thanks to recharge their batteries and to use the down time before January to use introspective analysis to calmly sketch out the details of moving forward on the four bullet items above.

I attended my first Tea Party meeting in January of this year and I am looking forward to the challenges ahead. So, Mr. Roberson, join us to get a real insight instead of forming an opinion off what you hear from the media.

The piece seems prefaced on the presumption that the entire
thrust of the Tea Party was an election. IMO the purpose for the Tea has not— cannot be recognized until those associated with the Tea Party and now in political office have opportunity to leven the whole loaf.Only when the Tea Party’s goal of limited and Constitutional governance is realized can there be a loss of interest in the work begun.

The RINO establishment resemble the Chinese autocrats in the sense that they don’t appear to believe in the platform anymore but instead are interested only in retaining power.

Going on for at least ten to fifteen years, and longer in some cases. The fight against entrenched establishment Republicans who wouldn’t recognize a Tparty platform or the Constitution of the United States.

....Tea Party Battle Plan

At some point, if the Tea Party Political Chemo Therapy doesn't work, surgery is going to be needed.

"Secession belongs to a different class of remedies. It is to be justified upon the basis that the States are Sovereign. There was a time when none denied it. I hope the time may come again, when a better comprehension of the theory of our Government, and the inalienable rights of the people of the States, will prevent any one from denying that each State is a Sovereign, and thus may reclaim the grants which it has made to any agent whomsoever."

                        -- Jeff Davis, First Pres. CSA

There is PLENTY to do...continue to purge RINO’s; cut taxes, cut spending, close GOP primaries at the state level, repeal the 17th Amendment, line item pork out of state and federal budgets, reduce election fraud...plenty to do.

I like what Palin puts forward as an action plan. Here is my Christmas list ...

Part 1 - Check
a) retain current tax structure
b) pass legislation to give Congress review/control over Executive regulatory pronoucements (Czar Check)
c) roll-back federal spending, including major de-funding of regulatory agencies which have exploded
d) investigate Zero, investigate Czars, investigate Fed
e) defund Obamacare

Part 2 - Checkmate
f) attack the deficit
g) focus on social conservatism - trust in God
h) sort-out NASA, EPA, Dept Education, TSA, Energy Dept
i) HELP SMALL BUSINESS ... roll back the red tape
j) try and rescue the dollar

Who thinks this?? Not a single Tea Party person I know.

We have only just begun to fight!

Texas TEA parties are already working to get RINO Joe Straus out as state house speaker and replace him with a Conservative. What's this guy doing besides writing about what we should do?
