Yes FR has and we need to garner the same momentum we had when we went after Clinton.
We need to ignite that spark again...get this ship moving and get some real results.
One of the agenda items should be to work together to identify all the resource on the web we can tap to help bring real change together (blogs, sites like FR, etc...)
We should identify key people in positions of “reach” that we can “lobby” to push key points of our agenda. Especially in regard to FL...we need to really really push for local reps that will stand up against this tyranny.
I have extension “mobile” assets and will dedicate whatever we need to get some serious activism happening with radio stations, etc...(i.e. when a socialist (democrat) is on a local radio show we should immediately text all FR in surrounding area with call to action to call radio station and provide opposing viewpoint) - we need to build perception in the marketplace.
We need someone to work on our “daily talking points” that we can distribute to everyone’s mobile phone, etc...
There is a lot we can do...we just have to get it done!
Good points by surfer in #60. In addition, I’d like to toss out a few more ideas.
All politics is local, so I’d like to see various Freepers who will be attending offer to do a little research and talk about their respective congressmen. What’s the status,a nd hope for the district? If it’s a GOP seat..is the person conservative, or a RINO. Safe for 2010? If it’s a Dem seat, is it hopeless, or is there a chance. Is there a viable conservative looking to run in the district?
As for the Senate race....well, I really don’t want to swap one RINO for another. If Christ runs, as looks likely..well, he’ll be heard to beat. He will keep the seat for the GOP..But I do think we need to find, and support, a real conservative who will run against him in the primary..and keep him honest..
“We should identify key people in positions of “reach” that we can “lobby” to push key points of our agenda. Especially in regard to FL...we need to really really push for local reps that will stand up against this tyranny.”
I agree! And that idea would also come under actions for elections in 2010 and beyond. I contact my local Rep and many throughout Florida who think I live in their district. It is a little trick I will share at the convention.:) We need to publish their records and support only those who are constitutional conservatives!
