Larry Welsh, thank you for all that you have done.
I want to say much more, but it is very late for me. God bless you for working so hard to change the tide. You are a true patriot and an honorable man.
You will recognize some of the following words, as most of them came from a previous post I had written. For me, these thoughts fit the moment.
—Ronald Reagan’s warnings about losing our freedoms echoes down through a generation of lost momentum and squandered opportunity.
We now have the most ignorant electorate in the history of American elections. I believe we have the most corrupt government and media our country has ever seen.
I believe that Newt was the one leader that could have turned our country away from the abyss, intelligently and quickly.
It is abundantly clear to me that not enough folks shared my beliefs, instead of a leader, they wanted a preacher.... and far too many lacked the courage to forgive and look beyond the personal sins in a mans past and into the promise of a brighter future for our country. That is certainly a free choice and a personal choice.... and as it is with all choices, there will be consequences.
In any case, Americans will get the country it apparently wants and a country it so richly deserves.
Those same people that wanted a preacher gave us McCain in 2008 by supporting Huckabee. They’ve now given us Romney for supporting Santorum. Yes, the GOPe wanted both Romney and McCain, but could not have been successful without the two “preachers” running to split votes. I am still amazed that people didn’t learn from 2008 and allowed history to repeat itself. Will we ever learn? Apparently not. The GOPe know their constituents well. I firmly believe both Huckabee and Santorum were (possibly unwittingly) in the race to ensure the GOPe candidate victory.

You wrote some very strong words that bear thought and repeating. To be clear, I am not Larry Welch, I just posted his email to the TX campaign - I guess I didn't give it clear enough accreditation, I just assumed everyone would know who Larry was... :)
Thanks for this post!
STAY STRONG!
