This is an interesting piece and contains much food for thought. However, there are parts that are (IMO) incorrect.

The hispanic issue is RIPE for moving into the red. Catholic, family oriented cultures who believe in being left alone and naturally distrust the government.

None of this is true. The GOP has fooled itself for years that Hispanic Catholics really want to be Conservative. And that African-Americans, because they care about God, because of their disdain homosexuality, etc. etc, are also ripe for recruitment in a Conservative bow-wave. Nope. None of this is true.

Also: Advancement in the military is a political game. The folks at the top get to the top because they are politically correct and because they go along with the prevailing winds. Getting top military minds to recreate the GOP is likely to give us ... the GOP-e.

I think some of the ideas in this piece have promise, but some do not. We (Conservatives) have a history of fooling ourselves through unwarranted optimism.

There will be no third party capable of competing with the coalition constructed by the dems.

And RINOs.

Don't think they don't see what has happened to their fellow relics of The Ice Age like Richard Lugar, Charlie Crist and whoever that fossil from Utah was.

They are protecting their own turf.

And, right now, John Boehner and Mitch McConnell must rut to continue the species.

We, Tea Partiers, are the politcial equivalent of the poor guy who is rotting in jail for making a sucky YouTube video.

We get blamed for things that are out of our control and are never appreciated for the point we are trying to get across.

Ah, well. I guess they'll have to learn the hard way.

Meanwhile, we are planting a garden, growing fruit trees growing (or whatever you call it) chickens for eggs and food (they only lay for a few years and after that they just cost money) and we will probably end up getting a goat for milk.

Oh, yeah. And investing in lead.

The Republicans ran a good honest campaign, the people want socialism and can steal the votes needed to win.We need to unite and overcome evil.

It’s too late.

They own the media, they own entertainment, they own education, they own unelected government offices, they own elected government offices. Their planning has been meticulous and unending and their execution flawless.

Meanwhile our side has done nothing and it has learned nothing. The water is boiling and has been for sometime. Not only is their no jumping out of the pot, there is a fastened lid on the pot.

Whatever destination the enemy set for us, we will arrive at. There is no avoiding it now. The only way America can or will rise again is as the phoenix, but I do not think that will happen, because one thing that I have learned through all of this is that as a whole, mankind is evil.

Eric Cantor knew about Gen Petraeus on Oct 27, but did nothing to let the Republicans know — So you lost me when you mentioned Cantor as a leader.

We need to toss political correctness and tell the youth the truth about everything.

The truth will radicalize the youth which is what we need.

Romney was hardly a conservative, and the GOP-e did everything they could to disparage conservatism in general and the Tea Party in particular.

Of those Romney voters who didn’t vote, I suspect conservatives make up a huge percentage. We all knew Romney just wanted to manage the current mess, not to dismantle it or make massive changes.

Another angle worth considering (IMHO) is a jihad against vote fraud. Across the board, we must eliminate ALL vote fraud, in all forms. Any election that comes within 5 points can by swung by fraud, it appears, and it is almost always the Dems who benefit from that cheating. We must take that weapon away from them!

For the 1 millionth time, you cannot defeat Santa Clause. You cannot win against the party of freebies. You cannot win against free money. The Democrats promise money from the teasury to buy votes. Even the Romans knew that spelled the end of the country.

ZoNation says that too many people are already talking about the next conservative ticket without doing any of the groundwork to make that ticket more receivable. He says that’s like painting a room without laying any tarp or taping anything up.
