The RNC really have to get the message -- good candidates get our votes. Just having an (R) after your name is not sufficient.

I've spent 30 years basically voting "anti-Democrat". It hasn't got me much. I vote Conservative now. Nothing else.

Think we should call the RNC and let them know, no more contributions. I get calls and mail from them all the time and have contributed in the past. No more.

Actually, it probably has. The biggest conservative problem is success.

We won the Cold War. We stopped a crime wave. We've strongly buttressed the Second Amendment (Dems flee from gun control). We got quasi-sanity on the SCOTUS. Even with abortion the culture is going our way.

What we should be doing now is be making our economic case which should be a slam dunk. It will, however, require espousing a "safety net" a la Reagan.

We are also going to have to better articulate our policy regarding illegals. Right now it sounds like "round them up and ship them home" which is a losing position with a lot of Americans who have conservative inclinations.

Make the Democrats take the extreme position i.e. give them drivers licenses, let them vote, let them stay regardless etc.
