Well, as Rush said to a caller in the third hour after talking with Tony Dungy, paraphrasing "a coach will tell you that when a team does something right for the first time don't go overboard with praise. Do give some praise, but also tell them that 'that's what's expected the next time, and the next, and the next'".

I trust the RNCC as far as I can throw it. Your money WILL go to support RINOs when push comes to shove in 2010. Remember, it isn't the "C"NCC, it is the "R" and Lord knows what will be left of it in a year or two.

I suggest telling your Congressman that you made a contribution in their honor to the new SarahPAC and come 2010, you will be there with direct support if they do what's expected the next time, and the next, and the next ....

But this is a good thought that you had, so keep doing it. :)

Dear MoveOn Member:

Did you see how many Republicans voted for President Obama’s stimulus package in the House yesterday?

None. Seriously, not a single one.1

Americans voted overwhelmingly for change in November. We voted for an end to the partisan bickering and political games that are destroying our politics. And President Obama bent over backwards to get House Republicans to craft a bipartisan bill, to no avail.

As the bill moves to the Senate, we need bipartisan support, or the stimulus won’t pass. Senate Republicans need to know they have a clear choice: support a stimulus package that will put millions of Americans back to work, or continue to play the games that got us into this mess.

We’ve put together a powerful new ad to pressure the key senators. Can you chip in $25 to get it on the air immediately?

President Obama spent hours meeting with Republican leaders personally. He made painful compromises to win them over.2

But Republicans refused to play ball. They’re insisting on a plan that doesn’t invest a cent in green jobs or health care or education. They just want more tax cuts for the rich and for corporations, even though that’s part of what got us into this mess.3

GOP leaders will get their way—unless we can convince a few Republican senators who are on the fence.

Can you contribute $25 to our new ad to pressure swing-vote Republican senators? Click here:

I used the term *modest* for a reason...

The idea is to give just a taste of the support the BASE is eager to provide when properly represented.

The floodgates that opened despite McCain—for Palin—can open again.

The congressman running the RNCC now is Sessions, he is much more conservative than his predecessor...

[Taxman]

Now that Michael Steele is chairman of RNC, what do you think about supporting RNC?

Personally, I think he is a much needed voice of conservative reason and will fundamentally transform the Republican Party.

For the sake of our country, I certainly hope so!
