I have enjoyed reading the thread today, including the food-fight.  What is interesting is both sides argue as though they disagree when I think there is more agreement than disagreement.  People have to remember, THIS IS a "in-house discussion" as we try to figure out which candidate we want to support and which one we believe would be our best standard bearer.  No doubt, our side is more animated on this than the Democrats are but that's okay too.

I'm not convinced Hillary is ordained as their candidate, and I wonder if Obama isn't a flash in the pan as Democrats wake up to how badly Hillary will do.  IF she wins their nomination it will be a result of Democrats willingness to believe anything and Hillary's organization putting pressure on their members.  Add in her ability to get donations and it is going to be hard to replace her.

Yeah, conservatives lost in Australia but we won in both Germany and France and the UK is trending more conservative from what I have seen.

The greatest challenge all of us face is educating voters, especially independent or unaffiliated voters.  To be honest, Republicans have not done this well in past years.  Republicans have to learn to be proactive instead of reactive.  We must begin amassing better support from Republicans who are our major donors, as the Democrats have successfully done, to combat the left.

In Colorado, three or four Democrats created the funds for party building.  There is no equivalent group of Republicans doing this.  My point is, Democrats are organized under the new campaign laws and Republican haven't figured out how to combat it.  IF we lose that will be the real underlying reason.  Look at both parties websites and the distinction is disappointing.  The similar sites around the country I have seen are no better. 

This is not doom and gloom but hopefully a wake up call for all of us to do more and do better.  The MSM is putting the open CO US Senate seat in the Democrat column for a pick up next year.  Don't believe it.  Our past major races had moderate and centrist Republicans running.  This time we have a fantastic, proud conservative Bob Schaffer who will represent us and I confidently predict he will beat the Boulder liberal Mark Udall.

I don’t disagree in anyway with what you’re saying. It is exactly how I see things. My only point was that I recognize that I might not be privy to things he is and, even when I disagree with what I think he’s doing, I always have to remind myself that I might not know all that he knows.

Bottom line, I choose to trust him, but I feel free to criticize what he does, even as I admit that he might be right

Food fight? I’m so far behind on everything! #509 was meant to be a reply to to AB!’s #499 but I messed up. No problem you reading it, but I’m sorry if I confused the situation.
