I doubt the base will stay home in a wide open election. Too much is at stake.
I’ve always been quite motivated and very active , but I must say , i’ve never felt so out of touch with the party as I do now. I’ve never seen the party so actively fight the base as they are doing now . It’s very disturbing.
I worked liked crazy in the last election . I could easily see that many of the grassroots folks were sitting it out and the election results confirmed that fact.
If we don’t turnout in the primaries to defeat these RINO’s in ‘08 , than I don’t think we stand a chance in the general election regarding the congressional races .
