You see, you're wrong in your initial premise. The conservative grassroots aren't leaving the Republican Party in the great numbers you seem to imagine they are.

Oh really. That's interesting because at Resistnet.com there is a similar discussion of leaving versus staying with the OP. The National coordinator, Darla Dawald pointed out many of the Precinct Chair positions were not filled by Conservatives in the last election and practically implored Conservatives to fill those positions.

They're dissatisfied with what the GOP's giving them by way of candidates, but they aren't running to any other party.

They're not staying with the OP.

If we seize the GOP machinery and put actual conservative candidates up for election, the grassroots will be right there behind them.

That's tantamount to saying if they had rearranged the deck chairs the Titantic would not have sunk.

You just can't get your head around the idea that I'm advocating taking the GOP over, not trying to force the current leaders to do what we want.

You can't get your head wrapped around the fact this same loser strategy has been pushed on FR in the past and has been rejected by many conservatives because they've had enough of the socialist light party. Keep in mind FR is a Conservative website, not a Republican website.

You refuse to understand, don’t you? No point in trying to convince you I suppose. You claim this is a loser strategy, but you don’t have any other ideas. Nay-saying is easy. But the folks who can only say “it’ll never work!” never accomplish anything.
