“We can barely get 10K for a tea party.”

I believe the problem is one of tech and organization. The right boasted about the spontaneous nature of the tea parties. Well that does not work.

We need the same email, text, Twitter power the left has.

For instance after the Netanyahu speech I checked out JStreet, the left wing American Jewish lobby that claims to support Israel. They immediately had a form up to send a protest to your Congress critter.

They have forms on their site that send messages to Congress, Obama, etc on lots of issues.

Here is the latest issue they claim credit for:

“When Rep. Donna Edwards (D-MD-4) came under attack from the right-wing for her pro-Israel, pro-peace views on Israel and the Middle East, JStreetPAC members pitched in to defend her “

During the campaign I signed up for the Obama Campaign to keep tabs. I still get emails for money and issues.

Conservatives used to be better organized (thank you Karl Rove) but the story of this election was the superior organization of the left.

I agree 100%!! They had a deplorable candidate but a great community organizing team. It was all a mass attack that was all smoke and mirrors and it worked. It may cost us our country and life as we have known it for over 200 years, but by God, they pulled the scam off.
