There's a questioning policy and working to change minds is an excellent and admirable goal. I'm with you 100% there.

It is this method of throwing out the baby with the bath water that I disagree with. No one else has the sort of funds and organization to build a new party from the ground up in 10 months. Unless you can get something like 60-70% of Pubbies and their $$$ to change sides to the CP, LP, or whatever, no pleasant outcome is possible.

If change was so ablsolutely necessary, it should have been done over the last three years. It is too late to move now. Prepare for 2008, when you will likely have HRC running on the Dem ticket, who's weak popularity with everyone that isn't a leftist will enable a third party to have a fighting chance.

Do split the unity of conservatives now will only lead to our defeat, and possibly the deaths of millions. This is no exageration. You know what all of the Democratic candidates intend to do to our defense budget, homeland security, and foreign policy. The war on terror will come to our shores, and we will have no one else to blame.

Feel free to criticise the President. Mass email him, write letters to Congress, protest on the street corners. Tell everyone who will listen why the path of freedom is the best for all people. These tactics exploit the strengths of fora like Free Republic. THIS is our power. THIS is where true change will come from. Attemting some sort of political revolution will only lead to our downfall.

A house divided against itself cannot stand.
