Who do you know here that hasn't been voting? Please feel free to name names. And if you can't name them, then that leaves just one person you're an expert on.

Now I see where you're getting that.

Context, please. I even quoted what I refered to. Arizona Carolyn stated "a third party would be no better beacause basically American;s are lazy, have a manana attitude and let the other guy do it attitude... heck most cannot even bother to vote and then they sit back an complain."

That's with what I was agreeing. The third party angle.

Arizona Carolyn, amen again sister!

Amazing << Hear this. Feel this, and tell me that this isn't music.
And dont sleep on these two, either.

Look, the third parties are glowing examples of why they aren’t the answer. Each election they get 1 to 3% of the vote. And that’s all they’ll ever get.

People blow off steam. You may lose a few of them, but most people aren’t going to go third party.

I don’t think we make ground by making blanket insults on the forum. We make ground by coming up with a plan that will replace the people in our own party that don’t vote the way they should.

To that end, I would prefer seeing folks form small groups within districts that can grow as the primaries near. We need to canvas, sell a man with a Conservative vision, and retire these RINOs.

If we are going to expend energy here, then that’s the sort of thing we need to accept, push, modify, improve upon and put in to action.

Saying that folks don’t do jack doesn’t motivate people. Saying that all people do is complain and post on Free Republic is not going to motivate people.

Saying, “I’m going out on Thursday to make sure every home on the north-side gets a tract to support our next Conservative Congressman, and I need some help”, will probably come a lot closer to motivating people.
