The cure for the "movement" is to work your asses off to get people elected.

Been there; done that. I have worked my ass off for more than one candidate, most recently Mike Briggs for Congress. He lost in California's March 5th primary. We did everything right, too, but Briggs had the least money of the three candidates. It's not as simple as you think, pal.

No, it is that simple. You don't need money to go door-to-door. You just need good shoes. You (and others) just didn't work hard enough. Your candidate could have won if you would have spent every possible hour of every day walking around neighborhoods-- and if the neighbors approved of his stances on issues once informed.

Money spent on 30-second ads aren't enough to educate the stupid people in this country to vote for conservatives. Being a conservatives means to vote different from your self-interest in most cases (see South Dakotans that support the pork Daschle brings home while supporting GOP presidents).
