Thanks Rick. That being said, could we have possibly picked a WORSE standard-bearer to espouse the principle of conservatism than who we picked in this presidential election? McCain is a true American hero, but good grief, what a horrendous candidate!

Yes, McCain was one of the worse choses. I was a Fred guy...although I even saw some flaws in him. I think we have to become the perceived intellectual party.

The medical care issue will be a HUGE issue in the next few years, and if the left looks to be the smart party....we’ll see a huge shrink in the military budget (via demands of leftist policy). Issues like that MUST be addressed!

And done in a way that people see the obvious value in ‘our way’.
