Great post, very encouraging. Leave no stone unlobbied, I like it!

Why should the youth of America vote Republican in this election? "I believe that the youth will vote for the Republican Party because the President fostered economic growth while lowering health care costs. Senator Kerry will not foster economic growth," Chairman Gillespie replied.

That is a lame response if it's intended for youth consumption. I hope he answered the question better on MTV.

Nice to see the RNC hanging out with the same people that brought us last month's wardrobe malfunction.

He shoulda said, "Pull your damn pants up, turn your hat around, and get a haircut."

"And that goes for you guys, too..."

I hope this is true. A fellow student came into the room where my daughter was sitting between classes at her college and asked who people were going to vote for. She was the only one who said Pres. Bush and he was surprised that he found one person who was going to do so. He told her that he had found a number of students who liked him as a person but wouldn't vote for him.

If you'll remember, MTV was a huge supporter of the so-called "Motor Voter" law. Unfortunately, the electoral process is not enhanced by voters who have to be pleaded with and herded into voting booths like cattle into box cars. Of course, the chances of electing big-spending, promise-'em-everything liberal politicians is enhanced by the participation of such voters, which undoubtedly explains the zeal with which the Clinton Administration and congressional leftists worked to give us motor-voter monstrosity. Thankfully, motor-voter hasn't been as effective as the left would have liked. Thank God for small blessings.

I hate to say this, but the Republican Party has got to take a page from the Dems book and start playing the class-card. They need to appeal to the youth in the same way that Dems appeal to the Seniors. That doesn't mean they have to lie, but they have to make it clear that if Dems get control, all that money they are paying into Social Security will be gone if Democrats get their way.

They have to make it clear, that while they may only be college students today, tomorrow they will be the small business owners and entrepreneurs...but the only way they can realize those dreams, is if there is a fair tax policy that doesn't punish the most productive...and allows for more easy, social mobility. The Democrats, "tax the rich" plans do just the opposite. Republicans must appeal to their futures.
