"but without the effort to get others to the polls, the RNC will be in big trouble."
Don't worry. After Bush accepted all the blame for Katrina (at least that's how all the headlines played his mea culpa), I'm sure the percentage of black votes for Republicans will surge in 06 and 08, more than making up for the loss of foot soldiers.

You may be right. If the republicans campaign on big spending, open borders and an unwillingness to confront democrats in the senate, I am sure they will pick up enough entitlement votes, illegal votes and moderate votes to more than wash out my little conservative vote.
