lol,
Tea partiers STILL HAVE NOT LEARNED. You are a VOICE IN THE WILDERNESS.
Now Class, Once Again: There is NO need for a third party. There is NO need to waste your damn time with phone calls, faxes and emails.
TEA PARTY, you just WASTED almost 4 years cause you DIDN’T know what you were doing. (To be fair, piecemeal, many locals did figure this out, they are the ones with the greatest success. They started locally. ALL POLITICS BEGIN AT YOUR COUNTY COURTHOUSE. PERIOD. EVEN THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES HAS TO GO [OR SEND PEOPLE] TO YOUR COURTHOUSE, TO RUN FOR ELECTION!)
PPSSSSTTTT! Forget the top, forget the middle, forget everything.
START AT THE EFFIN BOTTOM!
Remove and REPLACE those NICE OLD PEOPLE who stand at the front of the poll handing you literature on election day.
Remove and Replace the election judges. The poll watchers. The majority or minority poll workers. The COMMITTEE people.
THEY are the problem. Take them out, replace them with conservatives. It will take time, (had you started 4 years ago, you could have sewn up 2014) but it WILL filter up.
Those NICE OLD PEOPLE are the ones who elect municipal leaders, area leaders, and state committee people.
Sheesh, how many times does it need to be said.
Well, personally, I started about 25 years ago.
Correct. Moving the Republican party to the right is a bottom up project, not top down.
That’s hard, often terribly boring local political stuff that most people just won’t do. Those older establishment, status quo folks are only too happy to do that stuff though - and that’s why it’s tough to change much.
Heck even the Paul brigades are 100 times more likely to turn out for a party/rally, than actually turn out for a primary vote or at the local GOP meeting.
Lucy pulled the ball away on them again. They’ll never learn.
