It Can Happen Again

    Here we are less than a week removed from an election that, quite frankly, with better tactics and a commitment to a better ground game, should have been won. One of the great frustrations was that there was a great deal of money wasted on very bad tactics. You can say whatever you want about unforeseen factors (like Obama’s handling Sandy influencing 40% of the | Read More »

    Feeling Pumped After the Debate? Now Hit the Streets on Keep America Free Weekend

    Feeling Pumped After the Debate? Now Hit the Streets on Keep America Free Weekend

    There’s no denying that Mitt Romney took Barack Obama behind the woodshed last night and applied a good old beat down. Watching the gnashing of teeth and wringing of hands this morning by Lefties is somewhat humorous, but guess what, folks? Last night will mean nothing if conservatives don’t volunteer and compete with the Left’s ground game. The Left and President Obama’s machine isn’t going | Read More »

    Keep America Free: Fire Obama

    Keep America Free: Fire Obama

    We’re 40 days out from what is the biggest election in a generation. More than any other of the last 4-5 Presidential elections, this one really is about which direction America will take: will it continue down a path of statism, or will it stop, turn around and get back on a path of freedom and prosperity? I am under no illusions that Romney is | Read More »

    The Political Bust of TV Ads

    Let’s be honest: as a medium, television just isn’t what it used to be.  We live in a digital age, where the glowing screen in our living rooms that once dominated information and entertainment now has competition from a myriad of sources.  From Facebook to YouTube and tablet publications to on-demand streaming video, to the existence of DVRs and TiVo, television is being challenged from | Read More »

    Mr. President, I Salute You

    Yep, that’s right Mr. President – today I’m writing to salute you.  It’s not because I think that the unelected Supreme Court is going to back Obamacare or anything (I don’t).  It’s not because your vision of a world where America leads from behind has strengthened our standing in the international arena (it hasn’t).  It’s because every day I wake up, open my computer and see that you have once | Read More »

    Smart Money

    I’ll be the first to tell you that at the statewide, Congressional and Presidential levels you can’t win as a candidate without airtime. You will need to spend, sometimes significant, money on TV ads, even radio ads. But at a certain point, there is a diminishing return on what TV ads will get a candidate, especially in the last few weeks when it seems every | Read More »

    American Royalty

    With Queen Elizabeth’s 60th Anniversary on the throne being celebrated last week, royal watchers across America were glued to televisions and tabloids to hear the details of the lavish events marking the life and reign of a truly historic public figure.   While it’s behavior I don’t quite  understand, royal watching is a hobby for many Americans.  Maybe it’s because monarchy is so foreign to | Read More »

    Now Bleed Them Dry

    Note: This was co-written with my brother, Drew Ryun, president of American Majority Action. This week, America saw what real hope and change actually looks like.  The Wisconsin recall fight wasn’t about Republicans and Democrats.  It wasn’t about Obama.  It was about the power of the majority of taxpayers who stood up against being fleeced by the very public employee union bosses who have put | Read More »

    Politico Doesn’t Quite Get it Right with the Tea Party and the GOP

    The media’s wishful thinking about the demise of the Tea Party continues to drive coverage during the run-up to the election despite plenty of contrary facts.   Last week, Politico’s James Hohmann declared boldly that, “the Republican Party establishment has withstood the tea-party revolution.”   Hohmann’s analysis rests on the fact that he didn’t see many of the “Gadsden flag-waving insurgents” at the RNC’s recent spring meeting | Read More »
