28 Days Left -- What did you do TODAY to help Republicans win?

Free Republic Exclusive | 10/8/08 | Antoninus

I don't know about the rest of you, but I'm sick and tired of the hand-wringing defeatist doom-and-gloom losers that seem to haunt FR these days like Jim McGreevey at a turnpike rest-stop.

Therefore, with your indulgence and that of the mods, I would like to start a sequence of threads counting down to election day whereupon we can record what we are doing in a POSITIVE way to help elect McCain/Palin and Republicans and defeat Obama/Biden and the Democrats.

The following actions do not count:

1. Writing a whining vanity on FR about how the McCain campaign needs to change now or it's all over.

2.) Posting an article on FR highlighting a "bad news" poll.

3.) Posting comments on FR whining about unfair media coverage.

There are a lot of positive, meaningful things that many of us are and should be doing to help achieve victory. Much of this involves volunteering for the campaign and getting out into your community with the truth about Obama and his abysmal record, inexperience, and shady associates.

The media won't do it, so it's up to us. Are you up to the challenge?

It's my hope that these threads will serve as a clearing-house for such ideas and an inspiration for those folks who are still sitting on their butts to get up and do something!

Sorry, I’m a conservative, not a Republican.

No, you're not. If you were a conservative, you'd be supporting the conservative candidate - Gov. Palin.

You're likely one who throws a fit when you don't get things exactly your way.

We must stay positive because, even if we do lose, we need to continue to pray and ask God for wisdom and his grace.

Don't get me wrong, I badly want to win this election.

However, if our side does lose, it won't affect me too badly. My trust is in the Lord, not in some false political messiah. His Providence is beyond our comprehension.

Very good post. And it didn't surprise me either that the very first reply resembles something from some snot-nosed punk that wouldn't do lift a finger for any candidate, including a resurrected Reagan himself.

Haven't done too much today, but did stop by the McCain HQ for some stickers and to request a yard sign for me and my neighbor. And continue to dispel Dem-heavy polls and media bias while promoting McCain/Palin conservative candidates via FR and E-mail.

I avoided saying what I really think about the Republican party and their presidential candidate - sorry best I can do.

LOL! That's good enough!

[Cold Heat]

I did nothing....

I currently have no intention to do anything.

I firmly believe that this country, in all it's ignorance, and both worthless political party's will get what they deserve and I am giving it to them for no charge or fee.

Have a nice day.

And continue to dispel Dem-heavy polls and media bias while promoting McCain/Palin conservative candidates via FR and E-mail.

The email thing is VERY important. I've been sending emails around every time a new bit of damning Obama video comes out on YouTube to my whole email list. And the folks on there are all networked to others.

It's vital that we all begin doing this--particularly to friends and relatives who are Democrats.

Between the COLB and the fraudulent donations, time to Freep the FEC. And now rampant voter fraud. We cannot let the community organizer steal the election.

Also, Donate money or time if possible. McCain camp still needs volunteers to man the phone bank. Calls can be made from the privacy of your own home. I enjoyed it and talked to some very pleasent people. A couple of rude ones but what do you expect from libs.

Also, voluteer to be a poll watcher, God knows we really need them.

Also, keep talking up the Hannity special. I emailed Fox requesting a replay since with all the football and baseball Sunday I’m sure alot of people missed it and wont be searching youtube looking for clips.

Also, write comments to your local newspapers. Sometimes they print them.

Also, put up a yard sign, bumper sticker, wear a shirt etc.

any other suggestions?

Oh, and I picked up my tickets today for the McCain/Palin townhall in Waukesha WI tomorrow. My 13 year old daughter talked me into going. She’s crazy about the Governor.

Hey cute!
Of course I am doing stuff to get Palin elected but I am not writing vanities about it.
Sorry my sarcasm does not write well.

[impeachedrapist]

We are the only ones who can beat us.

You're exactly right. The Obamamaniacs know they can't win if turnout resembles 2004. That's why they're doing their best via polls and lovefest articles to depress conservative turnout. And unfortunately, at least here on FR, they're being somewhat successful.

But when I start to get worried I remember that FR is just a very, very small segment of society. This morning driving and then walking to work I couldn't get over the number of McCain/Palin stickers on vehicles.

[Antoninus]

I currently have no intention to do anything.

At least you're honest. This is for you.

[impeachedrapist]

Great posts. Thank you both for sharing and for getting involved!

[VanDeKoik]

His has substance and a positive message of action.

I’ll take that over the “McCain ought to do ______...NOW!!!”
post any day.

[servantboy777]

Contacted the GOP to ask if they'd consider withdrawing McCain's nomination and putting a candidate on the ticket that actually has a chance to win.

Oh, yes, could you please make sure he’za conservative dear sirs.

[impeachedrapist]

sorry best I can do.

No, not by a long stretch. For example, you could have stayed off this thread. But your "my way or the highway" ego wouldn't allow that, would it?

Thanks for voting, and thank you especially for your service to our nation.

Do share. The point of this thread is to let others know what we're doing, what's successful, and what's working our there. I'm sure some folks would do more if they had some good ideas. Let's generate a ton of them.

snot-nosed punk

Wow o wow!

I have not been called a snot nosed punk for 50 years - you made my day.

The purpose of my post was that instead of whining about vanities with a vanity posts then stop posting them. Of course I am doing stuff to get Palin elected but I do not need to list them. (ok that was sarcastic)
