I'm not a newbie, in any way -- I was a conservative when conservative wasn't cool, stood up for the national anthem before movies {That was a while ago} when I was the only one in the theatre to do so. Reagan was the first winner I ever voted for.
But I'm discouraged too.
Tell me someone -- So we've controlled the House, and Senate for more than 10 years, and except for clinton, the White House since 1980.
What is it that we're accomplishing?
Let me add this -- I Don't consider winning elections of any import, if the people elected don't do anything to fix the problems.
One more add-on -- I'm a social conservative. Those are the accomplishments I'm interested in hearing about.

Have you considered running for an office?

We are learning to look beyond the political order/process for salvation. Millions of kids raised right (home schooled) are growing into their paws, and moving into influential positions in every field of endeavor. Millions of parents are no longer waiting for politicians to "do something." They are transforming the culture using their own resources.

"What is it that we're accomplishing?"
Anti-gun laws are being repealed at the state and federal level.
State and federal funding for abortions has been banned or severely reduced.
Gay marriage bans are being passes all over the nation.
Many states have adopted voucher or schools of choice programs.
Conservative judges are being appointed at all federal courts to reverse the trend of inventing law on the bench.
Some consideration needs to be given to bad laws that were prevented, it is as meaningful as good laws passed.
People that cant see the difference between RATS and Republicans controlling office aren't paying attention to all the stuff the moonbats try to get passed, but are prevented from doing by a Republican majority.
If there was no difference, the RATS would be happy, they're not!
