How many different ways do the people have to say it to the Republicans? Do we have to put a note on the refrigerator?

The officials who run this government purely on our authority are leaving our authority behind with every passing day. The Republicans are doing nothing about it. It’s almost as if they have sold out and joined the Left. In this, the Republicans have lost the respect or are losing the respect of both conservatives and libertarians who might vote for them. An indicator of that has been the poor voter registration of these blocs for years now. A lot complain and then don’t register to vote. And why should they? The Republicans let the liberals eat their lunch and steal their milk money.

On the other side of this is the quality of candidates who see no support from the electorate. Just complainers. They know very well how many are not registered to vote. That number is way too high.

How do we solve this? 1) We attract better candidates who have confidence in the system and confidence in the electorate who will show up and vote for them, and 2) we register more voters on the right who signal their support by registering to vote and then voting. One foot in front of the other.

The electorate is seeing through the Saul Alinski retaliation against Dad and Mom nonsense now, and beginning to suspicion government. Something odd about gleefully vexing people as a national pastime, and learning it from a book. We are not anti-government, we are anti-corruption. We are not anti-government, we are pro-servant, as long as you sign on to be a servant and not a ruler. It appears that the only party of integrity is on the Libertarian and Conservative bloc. Now all we have to get them to do is be faithful to their wives and office and we’re set. No more trips to South America or toe tapping in the public bathroom. Show a little will and a little muscle and get rid of them promptly, and some of that respect might turn around.

Still, the libertarians and conservatives have the higher moral ground when it comes to integrity, since they do not steal archival documents, sell coal-rich land, send out strategic secrets to major newspapers, defy supreme court orders, accuse the CIA of lying, or engage in voter fraud.

There’s still more than a dime’s difference between conservatives and liberals if not Democrats and Republicans. The key is to get the conservatives and libertarians in to vote. This is something you can start before noon today. The more voters registered, the more likely we are to attract superior candidates who notice the support. Imagine FOX News reporting that republicans are registering to vote – genuine living people registering to vote – more than ever before. The MSM wouldn’t report it, that’s for sure.

This would be one of the first steps for the Republicans to get back the respect of the American people. Right now, they’re losing that respect. They seem to be able to walk while being anatomically incorrect: they have no spine. Too much emphasis on colleague courtesy over integrity of loyalty to the Constitution and to the electorate. For the Republicans to regain the respect of a large voter bloc of conservatives and libertarians, this means no more nebulous rhetoric while stumping for office, but specifics which resonate with the people.

You know what those specifics are.

Once in office, they can reverse everything the liberals foist on America. This is the reason for the left’s big rush for Health Care: get it done before the people get wise, and with the next election light years away by comparison, Health Care can then not be unwound. If it’s stopped and examined, it might be denied. For the rest of the leftist agenda, much of it can be reversed by a conservative Congress, at least this is the hope. Without this specific assurance – and without it beginning immediately upon taking office – there won’t ever be another generation of republicans. And deservedly so. If the Republicans can’t get elected on a platform of conservative values the way the people articulate them, they can go to Hades and I’ll hold open the door.

This means listening, and when listening, it means no more gun control.
