I make no apologies that I am a conservative. From what I hear about Michael Steele, former Lt Governor of Maryland, he feels that way too. For far too long, we as a party had to quake in our boots because the mainstreet media put us down. John McCain was the "Democract lite" candidate. We all see what happen to him. It is time to go on the offensive. When the honeymoon period is over for the President elect, we should pick an choose our fights with his administration. We should explain on position - clearly and forcefully - and in a way the public at large understands. In time for the 2010 mid term elections, our party should out organize Obama on the grassroots level and raise the necessary money for ads. McCain - Finegold should be repealed. If a opponent dumps fed finance, we should too. On the issues, we should explain how conservative ideals are the bedrock of this country and can provide concrete solutions to all our national problems.
For 2012, we need a nominee who knows where he or she stands on the issues and is quite fearless in competently speaking from the heart on them. No more moderation. Ronald Reagan won with the strength of his words. We must do it again with a strong leader who inspires us. The nominee must go to places like NY and Massachusetts to spread the message. The campaign has to on theme all the time but flexible enough to take advantage of new situations. This is a call to arms to fight for the soul of this party. Be a part of it!!!!
