Conservatives are not in the majority of the US population. If you look at the political attitudes of the population at large, you’ll find that mitt was being optimistic in saying its 47%.
I’m all for for the good fight. I’m even for a good fight where we’re losing. I’m not for a battle that has already been lost. Conservatives are dominant in maybe a handful of states. Otherwise, we’re spread too thin over too many states to have any meaningful impact over time. It’s really a sort of conservative diaspora. Elections are merely reflecting the reality that already exists.
You can challenge that reality in two ways: try to convince those that don’t agree with us over a large territory of the error of their ways or try to concentrate your numbers in a smaller territory and become dominant over that smaller territory.
We’ve been trying the first strategy over a number of years. And what we have to show for it is a uniparty and the reality of a culture and politics that is further left than anything the socialists would have dreamed possible in 1980. The other alternative hasn’t been tried in recent days, but has been reasonably successful in the past, although usually more for religious rather than political reasons. Examples include the pilgrims and Mormons in the US, and the Jews more recently in Israel.
Frankly, I’m tired of trying to convince socialists that they’re wrong. I just want to let them live their lives as they see fit in the gulag of their dreams. While conversely, I want to be around people that I can more or less agree with in freedom and liberty.
We don’t have to convince socialists they are wrong. Too narrow an approach. We need to convince America why we are the greatest nation in the history of mankind and we will not let this nation be taken over by the left.
The Problem is that they don't want to leave YOU alone.
They need the fruit of your labor to fund their projects.
To me the Answer is my tag-line, what Sarah Palin said: Build the America you want to live in at your address, and keep looking up.
