How will this party get even 1, let alone 40?
Ever hear of Ted Cruz from Texas? Find races where there’s a crappy GOP candidate and run SHARP, ARTICULATE, CONSERVATIVES. Microtarget the seats with carefully recruited well-matched respected locals.
Bring in heavy hitters like Sarah to gin up attention, money and energy.
Win race, do it again, show people it can be done. Repeat 30 or 40 times. Texas alone has like 36 districts. It could be easier than it feels.
