The task:
Convince good conservatives to run.
Elect them in the primaries.
The elect them in the general election.
To achieve this, short-sighted americans MUST be convinced of the merits. This task, to convince Americans to vote for conservatives, is not made easier by leaving the GOP.
I believe out task is bigger than that. We need to get back to changing America. Right now America is Honey Boo Boo and politicians are Santa delivering plates of Spaghetti and butter.
We need to start changing America house by house, neighborhood by neighborhood, school by school, city by city. We can’t keep waiting on the next “I’m from the government and I’m here to help” guy.
One could make a case that this task would be equally difficult if conservatives ran as Democrats or Republicans. Either way, the entire party infrastructure is in opposition to our goals.
Wait until you see what happens to Sen. Rand Paul during the next Presidential Primary if you don't believe me.
