Republicans need to quit playing defense. They need to find a couple of good telegenic spanish speakers who will go on Telemundo and Univision look straight into the camera and ask— “We’re just wondering...are Latins the new blacks?”.

[EQAndyBuzz]

Republicans do not make for very good community organizers.

[Venturer]

Republicans can alwats do like Democrats I suppose and just buy the votes, blacks and hispanics going to the highest bidder.

You know ,Just like last election.

Their efforts resulted in a 10% increase in Republican vote in the Jewish Community.

Because of their efforts or because this administration is the most anti Israel in history? Why Hussein got a single Jewish vote is beyond me.

IF REPUBLICANS WANT TO WIN ELECTIONS... THEN THEY NEED TO ONCE AGAIN BECOME REPUBLICANS AND PROMOTE REPUBLICANISM FOR A CHANGE. EMBRACE REAGAN’S AGENDA AND CORRECT HIS PAST MISTAKES TO MAKE IT BETTER!

An article about the future of the GOP and the word “conservative”
- Not Found.

[Clinging Bitterly]

Here we go again. Losers telling us what we need to do to win.

How is that supposed to work?

[Arthur Wildfire! March]

Yeah, Romney sure did excite the base, huh? What was the conservative turnout again? Really ‘high’, right?

Both times BHO won the Establishment repubs foisted a moderate on us.

Second point: we can’t out-buy votes to form a leftist-lite coalition that wins. [What most ‘minority’ amnesty repubs keep calling for.] And it won’t be long before NO ONE can afford to buy leftist votes.

[cripplecreek]

Conservatives need to stop treating minorities like culprits and start showing them that they’re victims of the democrat ideology.

[squarebarb]

Lazy, arrogant GOP. ‘Come to me, I am not going to put out a ounce of effort to come to you’. That’s the attitude of a spoiled brat, with entitlement thinking.

I keep reading over and over again of the utter laziness and incompetence of the GOP. We were out-organized a thousand to one. How to get rid of these slovenly creeps at the top?

RE :”The Asian Community, though smaller than the Hispanic Community, is the fasting growing in America. Yet the results there are very similar, with the percentage tanking from 42% in 2004 to 26% in 2012. Stephen Fong, who is a public policy consultant in D.C., served as an informal coordinator of a loose federation of about fifty organizations aimed at the Asian vote. He stated they had some successes — like in Nevada where Romney received 47% of the Asian vote. But he stated “The Romney campaign had a plan, but did not emphasize Asian-Pacific outreach.” He also stated the point person was not Asian.
Shawn Steel, the national committeeman from California, expressed frustration at the efforts aimed at Asians by Republicans. He stated the effort in Nevada was done with $100,000 of outside monies in the last month of the campaign. He bemoaned how the Romney campaign and RNC to his knowledge spent no money going after the Asian vote while the Obama campaign spent extensive resources. Mr. Steel stated “When will Republican consultants begin to understand their past failures to appreciate rapid demographic shifts? Successful consultants will take advantage of the many opportunities that exist with conservative-minded Asians.”..........
Yet, there does not seem to be much existing infrastructure at the RNC to attract minority voters. Sources said there was none when the current Chairman, Reince Priebus, took charge. He asked Vice-Chair Sharon Day to focus on this area. But then the Romney campaign came in and took over.”

Why should Romney have tried to get non-white voters and supporters? (like Asians)
After all didn't you see the size of the all-white crowds at his campaign events in PA? And he won his seat in the Senate with white MA voters. What could go wrong?

Don't you remember all the posts here about 6 weeks ago? Romney is winning big. He won all the debates. Look at those crowds !

Someone pinged me afterward telling me that Romney would have won (beat O) with the 1980s Reagan era voter demographics. There you go. What? That doesnt kick O out of the WH?

the stupid party fits.

[Brooklyn Attitude]

The article is pretty useless and really didnt provide any solution to the problem which is the values of the people we are trying to reach. DemocRATS could reach out to me all they want but I will never vote for them because I hate what they stand for. The values you are raised with are important in determine how you vote. You get them from your family, the culture, media and school. By the time they are teens it is too late. Their values are formed. Good luck trying to change them after a decade of indoctrination. I doubt you could change 5% of them to our side.

There are holy-grail benefits that liberals OWN: social security, medical benefits, WIC, SSI, EITC, loan forgiveness, affirmative action, free phones, bus passes, legal aid, open borders, peace dividends, etc.
Conservatives just do not promote those. It is not in our DNA. Conservatives offer hard work, ingenuity, and reverence for the greatest man-made document in the history of the world — the Constitution.
Now you tell me which message will draw minorities.
So, our approach cannot be trying to out-benefit the party that has driven the benefits truck all these years.
However, we might be able to keep their voter-base off the streets and out of the polling places. We might try offering free opium dens!

[PeterPrinciple]

It is the message that is the problem.

One line has a sign (FREE STUFF, until it runs out.

The other line has a sign (STUFF YOU HAVE TO WORK FOR, but you can have all you want.

Knowing human nature, what line will they get into? The other line has to run out of free stuff before they will get in our line. How will that happen?

[Iron Munro]

Our culture is on a downhill slide reminiscent of the final days of the Roman Empire.
We are getting near the bottom but still have a way to go.

The moochers, perverts and tyrants are in control and nothing republicans do will change the current dynamic.
We are past the tipping point and the leftists have the inertia.

Now republicans act concerned but the time when they could have made a difference on the national level has come and gone.

The same people who now wring their hands in despair had a chance to kill the malignancy when George Bush was elected twice.
They could have worked to prevent us from reaching the tipping point, but all they did in the 8 years of his administration was to act like piggish democrats and aid in the ongoing destruction of America.

If republicans had acted responsibly in the years 2001 to 2008 Barack Obama would never have been elected.

Short of a natural or man-made mega-disaster, there will not be a reversal in our fortunes until we hit the bottom and society completes its self destruction.

In the interim, republicans need to maintain their integrity and be ready to rebuild when the fall is complete.
Can they do it? Will they do it?
Judging on past performance it is doubtful.

[Neoliberalnot]

This is like saying the host needs to reach out to the parasites sucking out his life blood.

[dfwgator]

If you mean reach minorities who are conservative, I say yes........No to racial pandering.

[Mr. Jeeves]

Their efforts resulted in a 10% increase in Republican vote in the Jewish Community.

Honestly, this sounds like the RJC is trying to take credit for Barack Obama's mouth.
