"...perhaps conservatives no longer will put up with the deceit."

But please explain to me how a conservative's conservative like Rick Santorum, went down to such a resounding defeat? As far I know, Rick stuck to the Repubican and conservative values on every level. And George Soros poured millions of dollars into Pennsylvania and the media routinely blasted this good man, etc. ad nauseum...Doesn't it matter any more if one is principled, faithful, true to his word, etc.?

If it doesn't, then I want to know how we can turn that around? We simply cannot afford to lose men like Rick Santorum and George Allen. These men are not at all in the mold of Arlen Specter who has repeatedly violated the trust of Republican voters in this state throughout his entire tenure. When James Clymer ran against Specter in 2004, I really thought he could have beaten him and sure wish he had.

I would really appreciate some positive direction as to how to turn this mess around. I want to and will make every effort to individually register and educate new voters. I am willing to nurture each voter. Where should I concentrate my energies? I am open to any and all constructive suggestions/ideas; honest I am.

Thank you!!

Pennsylvania is becoming a blue state. I don't know why, but whenever I've been there it's seemed economically depressed, even when the rest of the country was booming. In those circumstances voters tend to choose change, no matter what the change is.
