Here are some ideas, but we are going to need more.

Got any?

[sionnsar]

I think we need a day or to to catch our breath, reflect, and then start thinking about directions. Today is a little hasty.

[djsherin]

We need to purge the party of liberals and statists. We need to offer a real alternative and give an actual defense of free markets rather than “Well I think the free market works”. And we have got to take a REAL principled stance against insane spending!

Oh yeah and there’s thing called the Constitution...

[xcamel]

Ya think?

[JSDude1]

I agree, except we shouldn’t be bitter or mean about it..we instead should be positive and advocate the Positive Conservative Agenda that can beat abject liberalism (communism)..kind of Like “Morning in America”..!

[darkwing104]

We don't need to lower ourselves to the level of the rats. We need to boot the rinos and moderates and spread conservative ideas. We can convert a lot of kids when they come to the realization that Obama isn't what they thought he was. They will have to be taught that they don't need government to be successful.

Outstanding post.

Its time for a little civil disobedience.

I can remember a few years back when Tennessee Legislature was trying to force income tax on the state. Tennesseans filled the streets of Nashville. The income tax never passed. Indeed, a proud moment.

I hear you. And maybe a little more talk and I will put my ear comments away. But I still remember the things that were said about Bush. The only thing I will not attack like the rats did, is the President's children.

So, I hear you, but I may need more convincing. Do you think this might cross a line?: Obama looks like a car going down the road with both doors open.

Now don’t forget the “I need a breathalizer...or...uh...an inhilator!” :)

I agree with you—but i am over republicans...i know people have been talking about rebuilding the “conservative” movement...well covservatives aren’t republicans...so how do we go about detaching ourselves from the stigma of republicans and start identifying ourselves as conservatives...what about an independant party with Sarah at the helm?

[do the dhue]

Hear hear!!

[wk4bush2004]

Count me in!

I think we should work to prepare Sarah for a presidential run in 2012. She has proven that she can energize the conservative base. She’s a true Republican; she’s no RINO! We can win with her!

[Pravious]

It’s easy to say “we,” but the truth is that for the most part the people we elect aren’t representing us at all, but themselves. How else to explain their habitual cowering in the face of RAT opposition (John “Hey I ran for President and all I got is this lousy T-Shirt” McCain included).

And this will get even WORSE in the Socialist reign of Obama The Magnificent... they won’t DARE stand up to him, or any of the other RATS against ANYTHING out of terror of being called racists.

I think the Republicans in Congress should spend the next four years rubber-stamping ANYTHING the RAT congress comes up with. No fillibusters. No arguments. No suggestions. No bills. Nothing. Sit around and collect your paychecks, fellas - after all, that’s what you’re best at anyway.

And I think the Republicans outside of Congress should refuse to grow their businesses, take their money out of the stock market, downsize - whatever. Refuse to feed money to the Obama Government. If that crashes the economy... who cares? I don’t care WHAT happens to the economy of Amerika, because it’s America I cared about, and that’s over now.

I think like this:

RINOs are on Elephant turf. This is my turf and I am going to defend it.

So, we really could help getting these stinkin' RINOs off our turf!

[oyez]

Let the rats be their own undoing.

[do the dhue]

I am all for that!

[RushIsMyTeddyBear]

COUNT ME IN! Hell hath no fury! Try to ‘reach across the aisle’.....and you’re TOAST!

[Eagle Eye]

You are sounding as shrill as the libtards did in 2000 and 2004. Stop or you ruin any shred of credibility you could have with anyone that will matter.

The GOP has melted down and revealed that it has lost its heart.

It nominated a man that ruined their super majority and kicked Conservatives in the shins.

Now it trashes Sarah Palin, the best candidate it has had since Reagan.

GOP is now nothing more than soulless fools who lust for power but don’t have the will to find a way to gain it.

[DRey]

Palin needs national experience before running. She has to overcome a double standard. If she serves in the senate, she’ll then be ready to run. She needs Stevens’ seat. Isn’t he going to jail? Doesn’t the gov. of Alaska then appoint his replacement? If she appoints herself, she’s good to go and can run 2012; otherwise, I cannot support her running. She won’t win, and she can’t run again as a VP. That will cut her value even more. Sarah for senate. It has to be that way.

[sionnsar]

I do, though I'd go read Rush too.
