You seem like a nice person and are sincere in what you are doing, so I'm not going to pile on you but I will say I think you need to grow a thicker skin or get some skills in public relations.

My observations have been reasonable and polite, yet you respond by making comments such as "If you stop talking long enough to read..." and referring to those offering constructive criticism as "meddlers". Wow.

I have read all your literature and commented on previous threads, so I'll reiterate them one last time and move on.

There is nothing wrong with your approach except that it is ass backwards. Yo believe all you have to do is put a "real conservative" up in a primary and that they will miraculously win that and then the general election.

You studiously ignore the fact that the rino's you wish to replace have been consistently chosen in the primaries by the republican voters and then by all the voters in the general election. I'd bet that more conservative candidates have run in at least some of those primaries and consistently lost. There is a reason for this and that you refuse to admit this painfully obvious fact is why your effort would probably fail.

You have to change the hearts and minds of the voters first to prepare the ground for success in electing your messiahs. The ground for conservative success in America in the last two decades was prepared by Reagan (who won because Carter was so inept) Fox News and media individuals like Rush Limbaugh. They moved the middle which translated into success at the polls.

My apologies to you Sir. It is my lack of public relations skill and lack of communication skill that are to blame for what I now believe was an error of negligence on my part. I believed that I had sent you a link to the master site map that has links to all the relevant pages for this project. It is clear from your reply that I either did not, or that the pages were not linked correctly and you were not able to navigate the complete website.

We are going to explain precisely how we are going to defeat RINO's where others have either failed or even failed to try. We will also show how our targeting will shift all Republicans further to the right. In addition, we are going to show how we plan to target the most liberal Democrats to even begin shifting the entire Democratic Party to the right. And we are going to show how we plan to set the agenda for campaigns as part of the process to change the hearts and minds of all Americans in favor of freedom and the Constitution.

I have Freepmailed you a link that will allow to read the rest of the "literature" that you were clearly not able to access before.

Again my apologies, Sir. And I hope you will give me and this project another chance.

Not to put too fine a point on it but taking your footbal analogy as an example: In the "game" of conservatives vs ~~socialists~~ liberals, regardless of who was quarterbacking, would you still not root for "your" team? Dumb moves and all???

I'd bet that more conservative candidates have run in at least some of those primaries and consistently lost.

I think this point would require some additional study. The party "machine" generally gets behind one candidate; overt or otherwise? Given the limited resources of the party, they choose the most "electable"; not necessarily the most conservative. The others have to make do with their own resources, regardless of their conservative credentials, if they are even willing to fight the battle at all. Would it not be helpful to the conservative cause if we could find a way to channel additional resources to the most conservative candidates?

I'm not saying HopefulPatriot's plan is necessarily the answer, but it has the potential to make significant contributions IMHO. The problem I see here is there hasn't been an honest debate on the nuts and bolts of the plan; maybe because it's not that easy to follow in its present format.
