David, I appreciate your goal but I am afraid that GOOOH will probably do more harm then good. Conservatives are much more likely to support a GOOOH candidate than Progressives are. Thus GOOOH would split conservative votes and allow Dems to win districts that they would otherwise lose. We need to instead concentrate our efforts on winning the GOP primaries.

my pleasure.. What I like most about this process is that good candidates are able to surface without the need for a multi-million dollar campaign.. at least that is the way I see it for now..

Donmeaker,
I think you really need to take a closer look at what GOOOH is all about.. it is not about a PLATFORM or AGENDA... although candidates seeking the GOOOH endorsement must have a platform and an agenda.. in fact GOOOH candidates will need to answe directly to the VOTERS throughout the process... it is time to get on board NOW if you want to participate fully in the process...

That is why IMHO, Duncan Hunter Sr. should now be occupying the WH.I think we all would have been better off if that had been the case.
I think whoever we run needs to have their own crew, to make sure they aren't screwed in the TV prep department.
Hunter got no credit for the delegates he had, and the Libmedia saw to that, but then, they had sold their souls to Obama long before then.

On many of the issues we now face, Duncan and who he would have carefully selected for cabinet posts and other appointments just maybe would have keeped things from rolling down the hill as fast as they have.
As far as this Goooh site. I am not going to become involved.
I will do my own research. If the so called Republicans and conservatives screw the pooch yet another time in 2010 and then 2012, I am going to hang things up and say the hell with it all.
For at that point we most probably will be beyond the point of return.
And do consider. It is the very rare truly talented and honest individual that would be willing to serve just one term in the HR. That is why we have career politicians. They are folks for the most part that do not want to work for a living. Some surely can be shown to have ran business, some doctors etc., but for the most part they are resolved in getting into the goodies. It is the way our system for so long has worked. To ask some one to go to Washington for one term is not being realistic. Only a few really strong patriots would take this route. Once one is comfortably seated, they tend to stay seated. The salary and bennies are to good to do otherwise.

I’m not suggesting that folks be limited to one term. But they should be required to RE-earn their seat every two years. Nobody should feel obligated to support the incumbant and the voters should consider all of their options every two years

WITH the most extreme left wing senator NOW President. Its no time to be experimenting with a third party unless it will get democrats out of office in 2010 and get them out of control of the House or Senate. If we don’t take the House or Senate away from obambi, he will have more time to destroy this country.

IMHO GOOOH is more acurately described as a NON partisen process rather than a 3rd party. Which is why I hesited to get on board. I am a huge fan of the 2-party system in the sense that we need a majotity and a minority in order for the legislative process to work. I think GOOOH is the right aproach to use in choosing a candidate for the HOR. For now this is an achievable goal. I suspect throguh the GOOOH process we will see great candidates surface that may not have a chance under thw current system

I’m out.
I interviewed the founder of this project many months ago. Nice enough fellow.
But the system is just that: a system.
While we have plenty of process problems, this is not our main problem.
GOOOH is morally neutral. Or, to put it more harshly, it is morally vacant.
Unless and until America is willing to return to its moral basis, it cannot be turned around or saved.

Two things would really be a great benefit to GOOH:
1) To work to promote candidates only during the primaries.
2) Rather than fielding candidates within a new party, field candidates within the established parties.
