I don't like much of the GOP leadership myself , so I try and do something about it. GOP leadership is elected. Precinct delegates elect county leadership and state delegates. State delegates elect state leadership and national delegates. National delegates elect national party leadership.
In additions, elected officials are all elected as well. We have primaries and general elections for them. In 2006, I had a horrible RINO congressman representing me named Joe Schwarz. Schwarz only won in 2004 because the conservatives split the vote. We voted out Schwarz in 2006 and replaced him with a very good man in Tim Walberg. Walberg lost in 08 by 2% because leadership abandoned the race and McCain quit the state. Walberg is running again and has a good shot to win with the change in political dynamics.
Marco Rubio is fighting the establishment in Florida and is well on his way for kicking out the liberal Charlie Crist. We know the problem. Now we need to work hard and implement the solution of getting a better establishment. It starts with good precinct delegates and good elected officials on our homefronts.
So the precinct delegates are led by a precinct “captain”? This is a position which others have suggested I opt for, although what impact I may have in southwest Nebraska is likely minimal.
