I like hearing that they are unhappy with “the one” we have every reason to gloat - we said it would happen but they knew all too well.

Unfortunately gloating is not going to help us. We need to get the media back to being unbiased and reporting facts about politicians. 2012 is a short way off with a lot of damage in the mean time.

I don’t doubt that the MSM will give Obama or his successor (I dont think he will finish his term, he will leave) a full court press. Declaring them the only ones who can save us while slandering the GOP candidate with falsehoods redacted on page 34.
Not to mention the fact that the RNC hasn’t got a clue who to run that can actually excite republicans and conservatives. We may well end up with another McCain who was not much better than Obama.

Maybe I’m too optimistic, but I don’t think the Tea Party will countenance a McCain-clone in 2012. If the RNC thinks we are angry now—or if they don’t bother to think about it at all—just wait and see what happens if they try that stunt again. Sow the wind and reap the whirlwind. The candidate in 2012 had better, by hook or by crook, be a conservative, or the Republican Party will have an insurrection on its hands.

I think the single biggest change we need to make is to insist on more even-handedness in the debate format. For as long as I can remember, all the presidential debates have been moderated by far left ideologues. This has got to stop. If the RNC won’t insist on a 50/50 split between liberal and conservative moderators, then the candidate plus the Tea Party must. Too much is at stake to allow the moonbats free rein for another cycle.

Imagine the Left agreeing to four debates all moderated by Tea Party activists. Can’t do it, can you? Then why do we do the equivalent? It’s gone on for too long; it’s past time to level the playing field.
