		<description><![CDATA[Conservatives should value ideas and action.  If you can&#039;t communicate your ideas the only action you get is being on the business end of being laughed at.

Your post, frankly, was a run of the mill hooha for a candidate.  You brought up all the standard points one would expect to find in that sort of post.

The problem with it is not the content, it&#039;s your absolute inability to communicate effectively.  Based on both the presentation and the content of this post I wouldn&#039;t be bragging about my &quot;education&quot;.  You appear to have wasted a lot of time and money.

I look forward to your next attempt.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[and the 2010 election results in florida proved our strength. our candidates won in both the primary and the general. 

of course, a conservative choice as VP would mean all the difference as far as our enthusiasm and energy level is concerned. i am praying that he doesnt self destruct by picking an establishment moderate from the northeast. a southern conservative would be the best choice as far as us tea partiers are concerned.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[and other areas from a whole host of tea parties who are working together - just like we did for Wisconsin. We&#039;re just not disclosing the details of our initiatives because the other side doesn&#039;t need to know.

Also, the AL State GOP Chairman announced at our annual dinner last Friday night that we have launched an initiative called &quot;Battleground Patriots.&quot; It is designed to help Romney in Florida, Virginia and North Carolina since we&#039;re pretty sure Romney&#039;s gonna carry Alabama without any problem.  &lt;a href=&quot;http://algop.org/battlegroundpatriots/&quot;&gt;BattlegroundPatriots&lt;/a&gt;

It really doesn&#039;t matter where you live. There are opportunities to help with the campaign. If you&#039;re concerned about Florida and Virginia, why don&#039;t you find an opportunity and help?]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[he&#039;s not a &quot;favorite son&quot;... unlike Rubio, who seems to hold that mantle in Florida.

The trouble with Rubio, though, is that he makes sense only if Florida isn&#039;t already moving toward Team Romney ... something trimulchio asserts but does not back up.

		<description><![CDATA[is assuming he moves the needle any way in Virginia.  Virginia will basically come down to turnout between the heavily Democratic DC suburbs and large African-American population in the Hampton Roads area vs. the large anti-Obama vote (just ask Rick Boucher) in Southern Virginia combined with the large Republican leaning military vote in Hampton Roads.  There is a large college population as well that went big for Obama in 2008 (I hold out hope the pending 50% unemployment among college graduates might swing some votes Romney&#039;s way).]]></description>
