The GOP is trying to listen…will you make your voice heard?

Today I recieved an email from RNC Chairman Mike Duncan encouraging me to reflect on why I am a Republican and to share my input. In order to do so they have put up a site called Republican for a Reason. I encourage all of us to participate on this site.

The site allows you to post 2000 character text posts on a variety of topics. Also it allows you to upload video post, for those of you with pretty faces…;^). Additionally users can rate posts on a scale of 1-5 stars. This, to me is the most important part of the site. This is an opportunity for conservatives to create a grassroots groundswell that cannot be ignored.

Already the site has some comments condemning evangelicals and conservatives in general, but there is hope as most of the 5 star comments appear to be in favor of conservatism.

So I am hoping that you will all take a gander, make your voice heard and give out some stars to the conservative posts. After all if we don’t take this opportunity to speak out now, we may be silenced for a long time to come.

      We need to start now to rebuild for the future. Hopefully us conservatives can get the point across that we want our party back. Thanks for the recommend brother.

        I can’t help but throw a dig in…(childish I know)…about what a mess the current leadership have made of the GOP.

        I’m glad they’re doing something…but I cynical and will be surprised if they do anything more than put up the site and walk away without listening.

          My hope though is that maybe the loss of the house, senate and the WH will finally get them to listen to what we are saying and have been begging for.

          Of course that can’t happen unless we post there often and with clear conservative positions.
