What’s this about a Freeper Convention? Is this for real, or is this simply a get-together? I’m down in Sarasota, so I’d be willing to come up for a couple of nights if there’s anything to meet about.

Yes, it is for real and a real convention! We Florida Freepers need to organize and set goals for 2010 and beyond concerning both state and national elections. There will be lots to talk about plus we get to meet so many other Florida Freepers!

Hubby and I will be there for Friday and Saturday nights!:)

Yep, like SeekTheTruth said, this is not just a get together. We’re setting an agenda and starting to lay down some real goals for the coming months and years. I believe we need to focus on the local 2010 elections, particularly the Senate seat that Martinez is vacating. And I think we need to talk about ways to network with other grassroots groups and like-minded politicians to see if we can undo some of this nonsense that’s going on.

I had asked people to contribute the top 5 goals they think we need to accomplish and to refer to Jim Rob’s guidelines when he posted the original idea of having local Freeper conventions. I’m not sure too many people have done that; SeekTheTruth is the keeper of that list though if you’d like to contribute.

We’re hoping to get at least one guest speaker within our range of topics, perhaps a conservative candidate who would be running against Charlie Crist for that Senate seat.
