your written idea here, appears to have teeth....
If in the coming month thousands and thousands of constitutional conservatives UNITED locally, not at a tea party rally or meeting, but at their local GOP committee meeting – expressing a desire to become a precinct committeeman – a SHOCK WAVE would be sent through the political world.
SHOCK WAVE ? I'll agree the Republican Party needs a good Shock Wave.
Does anyone have a point of view on this point? Is this a means to an end of RINOs?
I don’t spend a lot of time here, so forgive my ignorance. How many people are on this discussion? Can we poll them? How many of you are, already, precinct committeemen in the Republican Party?
What states do each of you reside in?
I’m in Arizona. It’s EASY to become a precinct committeeman there — over 50 per cent of the slots are vacant.
Let’s do the math. Fewer than half of the voting membership slots of the Republican Party in AZ are filled. They are split about 50-50 between moderates and conservatives. So, we’ve got a half-strength, ideologically split party. Now, imagine all the conservatives in the various grass roots organizations that have formed (tea parties, 9.12 groups, Freepers, WeSurroundThem folks, etc.) UNITE inside the Party. NOW! Together. And sign up to fill all those empty slots. Now, again, do the math. That 50-50 split goes to 75-25 in favor of the conservatives. And, instead of going into the 2012 election cycle with an ideologically-split, half strength party, we go into it with a very strong conservative majority inside a full-strength party.

Go here and read my recent comment at Redstate.com and follow the links:
The Neighborhood Precinct Committeeman Strategy is just good, old-fashioned, basic participation in the tradional American two-party system as some of learned in Civics 101. Which the government schools don’t teach any more — by design of the progressives who took over school boards while conservative Americans were enjoying the golf course or whatever.
We have the numbers — there’s about 200,000 vacant Republican Party precinct committeeman slots nationwide. Conservatives numbered in the millions around the country at the 9.12.2009 rallies. If just ten per cent of them would “pivot” out of tea party mode and get into “political party” mode, and actually get involved in party politics, we conservatives could TAKE OVER the Republican Party. No more complaining about “the Republican Party” — conservatives would BE the Republican Party.
So, who’s already with me?
Who will join me?
I am not going to allow my children to live under socialism. I need your help. NOW!
Thank you.
