'It Ain't Over 'til It's Over': What to Do Now
American Thinker ^ | 11/10/12 | Paul Murphy

Posted on 11/10/2012 7:20:25 AM PST by Sioux-san

....In the short term, the GOP must fight the count. Romney should never have conceded, and he must now find a reason to "unconcede." It's alarming advice to give the GOP, but in this the party must behave as the Democrats do. Try to imagine, for example, how the Obama campaign would have reacted if the numbers in Florida were reversed; if Scot Brown seemed guilty of practicing law without a license and won anyway; if a half-dozen major precincts responsible for electing Republicans claimed turnouts of 99% or more; if the Romney campaign had rather obviously both solicited and accepted foreign money.

I know we'd all like to be better than that -- but we're not going to save Democratic voters from their leaders without breaking through the social and political barriers that leadership have put in place to protect their positions. Ask your neighbors, your family members, anyone who votes Democrat but isn't fanatical about it: do they want $8 gas? Thirty million unemployed Americans? Dysfunction in health care and the military? ... more than half of all Americans are abandoned to people who treat a lie as just another tool, who have no shame and no loyalties beyond themselves.

So we have to do it -- and we start by denying Obama any aura of legitimacy. We fight the count, we impeach on Libya, we go after him personally and in every possible way.

In the middle-term, the GOP should turn to its financial backers -- and those backers should move to take over major media players.... Gannet, Time Warner, and McClatchy are all horrifically unbalanced but great properties nevertheless. Republicans should buy these -- and run them as real news and entertainment businesses, not as propaganda outlets...

You’re probably correct. However, after the House of Reps impeach Obama, the Senate tries him. Good luck with that.

Rubio is not a natural born citizen and wussie on immigration.

And without entirely turning the MSM on its head or inside out, it will be such an uphill battle I don’t know how it can be done “within the system”. Gutless wonder R leadership has demoralized many conservatives, how to pry weak sisters like Boehner from positions of leadership?

I agree that local local local is the key, cities, counties, states. Adherence to the Constitution with courage is absolutely key.

I’m open to suggestions re: Rubio.

That’s why we have to attack the MSM every time they try to paint us in a poor light - in their face and personally. EVERY ONE who represents us has to be able to CLEARLY and with CONSISTENCY be able to counter the verbal traps and double talk they dish.

We need to flat out REFUSE to appear on programs that we KNOW we’ll be outgunned and outmanned.

It’s the message; clear, concise and crafted like a McDonald’s commercial that will resonate.

Precisely - We need to pursue power and control BECAUSE of our VALUES!

Without Republicans in positions of power or authority (both on the most local level and national) who hold Constitutional principles as paramount, and have GUTS and aren’t terrified when liberals and elitist RINOS call them names, it’s all theoretical.

Currently it seems all R leadership, 90% or more of all elected Rs, all “conservative” talkpeeple, are terrified to say anything that Dems/commies/muzzies/black racists/faggots don’t like.

See my tagline about courage.
