Don’t forget Weaver announced he was becoming a Democrat after he left McCain’s senatorial staff.

Liberals have such a ridiculous advantage in American politics: unlike Conservatives, who naturally gravitate toward the private sector, liberals are so numerous in government that they have sufficient resources to spare dedicated solely to sabotaging the other side. Conservatives, on the other hand can barely cobble enough people together to run for office.

One cure for this malady is a national party based on ideas and passion; dedicated not to trying to convince people to like them, but to playing smash-mouth, kick-ass-and-take-no-prisoners politics.

When a Democrat lies, don't complain, or say he's being "misleading": call him a lying dirtbag - in public. When a Democrat accuses you of wanting to starve children or throw granny into the street - call a news conference and have a truckload of manure sitting there. Then, tell the news media that you wanted to debate your opponent, but he declined, so you did the next best thing and brought a sampling of his ideas. You gotta think outside of the box, people. Have fun, stop whining and start winning.
