I think you are right and IMO DeMint is leaving because he has come to the realization that the houses of Congress will never be able to restore the constitutional republic.

In the past year or so Jim Demint has looked to me like he had lost his zest and he seemed almost depressed. He probably knows we are way past the ballot box.

We seem to be on the same mind track. I have been thinking about conservatives who have homes in two states to pick Florida as their official home so that they can vote there. I know lots of people who live in MA and have winter homes in Florida. Since they already live in Florida part of the year, they wouldn’t have to move out of state just change their Florida home to become the place where they vote.

The Dems always emphasize the “ground game”. We have to have more boots on the ground and use every vehicle possible to us. We have to use the churches to better effect. Why aren’t there monthly Christian patriotic newsletters passed out to all of the parishioners or congregation? Why not use the churches and real social networks, meaning family, friends, neighbors to get people out to the polls? I want to see Christian voting 90% conservative, the way that Blacks vote 90% Democrat.

I think the conservative majority is still complacent and in denial....this is America the land of the free and the brave. That is what we always heard and I guess there is just a refusal to believe that our country could have been destroyed by a bunch of termites knawing away at our beliefs and institutions for generations.
