The opportunity is there; all that needs to be done is to take that opportunity to deliver the message - the real message, not the one that the Dems see fit to deliver on our behalf.

That message has to be delivered by Black Conservatives. I've been working actively on political campaigns for years, and white Conservatives are not welcome in Black neighborhoods. Black Conservatives have a hard enough time, but whites get nowhere.
And getting Blacks from integrated neighborhoods to come out to hear Conservative candidates isn't easy, either. My neighborhood has about 20% Blacks, but they never account for more than about 1% of the audience at any Conservative rally.

That's not true. For instance, Tom DeLay can deliver his own message better than a surrogate.
