"It appears you have to sign up and this will allow you to log in."

And then you'll be bombarded with emails and requests for contributions. The last time I donated to the RNC was back in '04, and I'm still getting mail from them. They don't really care what you think, they just want to build contributors. The Republican Party has known for a long time what their Conservative base wants. They don't care.

Concur 100%. It boggles the head to conceptualize how a country this rich in natural resources, can be so torn and shattered in the markets, and the world, for that matter.

last conservative Dem was Zell Miller

Yeah, that's my thought too.

I think this is a hard mind shift for the older folks who have always voted Dem. They still think the Dems are run by "conservative" types. They don't realize that most of the current Dems are trying to turn our country into a socialist one. One where the government HAS TO control everything.

p.s. if you haven't heard of him check out Allen West (FL). I'd like to get him in a position to run for Prez.

So, what this tells me is that over the last 10-20 years the Republicans are starting to lean toward the liberal side

And that is why the party will split. For whatever sad, sad reason the Democrats don't see the 'rats as where we do see what is happening to what was once our Party. If the GOP doesn't wake-up we will see not 2 parties in 2010, but 3 with the GOP being a tiny minority. I think by 2012 there will be 4 parties.

I have to give Adam Hasner(R-FL) credit. Right before the election I got a “What do I need to know?” from him. Just a blank “Comments here”. I looked all over it for the “Here's my contribution”. Not there. He really wanted to know, couldn't help but make a contribution rather than tear it up as usual.

“Addressing Climate Change Responsibly”

Any party that mentions “climate change” will not get my support. I am a Conservative, not a Republican.

I urge the ending of primaries altoghether. Back to the Caucus system such as we have in Minnesota.

I hope we are all ready to have this site monitored as a “terrorist website”. They will use Bush’s wiretapping proceedures against those who disagree with them. Anti abortionists will disappear in the night. Gun rights people will replace terrirists at Gitmo....

Actually Newt has done a pretty good job of framing many of these issues from a conservative perspective on his American Solutions site. There are exceptions, but I was generally pleased with what I saw. Check it out.

Does anyone remember the youngish Republican who was influential in the 80s who died of cancer? He was dynamic.

WE need another Lee Atwater. Young tough and as dirty as the enemy.
