Today, we begin to work against this coup.
Today, we start to take back America.
Dear God, help us.
The majority has no rights when the majority is so dangerously wrong.
“They aren’t interested in hearing about self responsibility, opportunity or anything conservative. They take what they have for granted and never once consider that their parents hard work provides it all.”
I think that’s exactly the wrong attitude to have; it’s being dismissive of them and writing them off.
We need to talk about personal freedom and a less intrusive government. The freedom to achieve whatever you want, free from government shackles.
I want to beat these socialists who won tonight, we need a vision to do that.
And honestly I don’t think the McCain campaign offered that vision.
Reagan did have the vision, we need to look at him for guidance.
It’s over. Tomorrow belongs to them.
Conservatism needs:
1) National failure(s) :(
2) Democrat act on their leftist agenda
3) A Leader who is
* A constant, tireless promoter of vision in direct contrast and criticism of Obama
* Comparable age to Obama (no Newts, no Huckabees, etc.) (gender and race not important its age!)
4) Executive/Legislative National Reform Agenda specifc, simple, concise, understandable (like Contract with America)
#1 is painful. #3 is the hardest for the GOP.

Well, ACORN helped.
You're right that we lost because they out-fought us. But they did fight dirty and the voter fraud is rampant.
If there's anything left of our fair Republic to salvage in 4 years, we need to learn the hard lessons from this election and win it for good.
At this point, we're in a culture war and we have been for some time. We need to remember that all's fair in love and war and we need to what works. *We* need to read "Rules for Radicals".
We need to choose intelligent, focused, ELOQUENT, principled constitutional conservatives then be prepared to back them up with every underhanded tactic we witnessed from the left this election.
Conservatism needs:
1) National “test”, that, unfortunately, we fail
2) Democrat acting on their leftist agenda
3) A Leader who is a constant, tireless promoter of a vision in direct contrast to Obama; must be of comparable age to Obama (no Newts, no Huckabees, etc.) (gender and race not important its age!)

Now is not the time to lash out or decide what to do next. I now that is a natural thing and it is a very American thing. But, let's take awhile. Go get a cup of coffee in the morning. Thank God for all we have. Think about where we want our country to go.
We have been playing defense for sooo long. Defending Bush, defending McCain, defending everything. Now, we don;t have to do that any more. The other guys are going to need to defend things. We will get the opportunity to take our shots at them. All in good time.
Meanwhile, keep a smile on your face and wait for the opportunities to show how absurd they are. Quite frankly, I pity the poor bastards.
Amen. Raise the flag...
I concur
Maybe Patrick Henry should have just told his confederates to "calm down". King George wasn't that bad was he?
We have to get Republicans acting like Republicans again.
We did this to ourselves. Too many RINOs abandoning Reagan’s principles. Runaway spending. Awful on immigration and earmarks.
We have to take our own party back first before we can even start battling the Rats.
I believe Hamilton told Jefferson to calm down.
No more...
The American people have voted in Socialism and Marxism, lets just go out there and shove it down their throats for the next six months, its time for reverse McCarthyism so to speak, convince people that they are embracing a life of welfare, explain that they must share alike, if your neighbor buys a new car insist that he loan it to you, fair must be fair.
Make America sick of this misguided philosophy.
Or join them.
Sacrifices will be made.
Not if obama buys him off with the promise of power and position.
