That’s why we need a national focus right now or it won’t matter who the hell is in charge at the local level. They will simply be aparachicks carrying out diktats from the Obeyme commicssars…

And considering how liberal Scozzafava is, I wouldn’t care if her opponent lived on another planet, as long as he, she or it was a dependable conservative…

A spectacular tenure as the CEO of HP, both in success, a-a-and then in controversy [not failure, LOL]….

Not a lot of courage there.

I’d say we’ve been doing our work.

BTW, according to JadedByPolitics over on the “Tin Ears in Republican Leadership” diary:

The TEA Party participants have NO “loyalty” to the GOP….

“They, and when I say ‘they’ I mean ME, have a loyalty to the United States of America and the Conservative who speaks to her greatness and the necessity to hand it back over to We The People and away from the filthy disgusting hands of the idiots in DC.”

“If anyone of those tools running the GOP think for one moment WE stand with them, well NY-23 and the SMACK upside their head should take care of that notion!”

What he said.

Why don’t you go lecture him about “teaming up with others ” and “trying to influence who the next chairman is”?

“Looks like the NRCC may have strong-armed the Scozzafava selection. So much for State’s rights and “local” action. You decide”

“Dugan and many of the local Republican County Committeemen and rank and file were not happy with the tainted process by which the National Republican Congressional Committee forced the liberal Scozzafava upon this largely conservative district, as was first documented by The TCOT Report. Yesterday, the TCOT Report story on the tainted nomination process of Scozzafava was confirmed in its entirety in a blog post by Dan Riehl.

Unfortunately, the fingers that matter appear to point back to Washington and the NRCC. No wonder we are now reading reports of the NRCC going all in for Dede in NY – 23. Someone needs to cover their behind in something that is said to have not won many friends even including within the RNC itself. That’s likely the reason why they were so slow to give to Scozzafava in NY – 23 until well after the NRCC. In short, they were ticked-off as it appears the NRCC rigged it and blew it from start to finish. But GOP first and uber alles in DC at the end of the day.”

The Democrats, and particularly the Blue Dogs, don’t fear the Republicans. But they fear conservatives. They won campaigning to the right of their party mainstream in districts that on the whole go for the conservative traditionally.

Even if Corzine pulls it out in NJ, a Hoffman win in NY could have serious implications for curtailing Cap and Tax as well as Health Care Reform. And if those dominoes fall, Obama may have in fact met his Waterloo and the whole conservative movement gets a big shot in the arm.

So getting Hoffman elected is not just another at bat. It’s a swing for the fence that has the potential to put the game away (if not the whole series). A win for Hoffman would be viewed by many as the proof that the Tea parties and the Town hall Meeting crowd were not just a passing phenomenon, but instead are something that has to be calculated into future considerations.

Ellen to Clark Griswold, “You get weird when you get tired…”

It wasn’t that funny. I was just in a weird mood. Sorry.

Am I the wookie? (“The Wookiees, although primitive compared to us, are surprisingly capable warriors. They’re pretty strong, and pick up combat techniques pretty quickly.”

Or is Neil? (“It’s not wise to upset a Wookiee.” ?Han Solo)

In any event, considering the nationalization of large corporations and the imminent takeover of much more of the private sector, whatever I’ve done seems to have been a waste of time.

Of course I will continue the fight and continue trying to get on “the inside”, but I hope it’s not too late. Remember, (if we’re lucky) we (only) have another year with Obama in control of most of the levers of power.

A whole lot different than what’s being portrayed here.

With half the precinct committeemen slots nationwide vacant in the Republican Party, and without any evidence that conservatives who share your view points flooding into the Party internal voting ranks, the existing Party leadership could care less what you tell them. As long as you’re an “outsider” without a vote in whether they retain their leadership posts, what you say is inconsequential. The ONLY way you can change the Party leadership is by . . . drum roll . . . changing the Party leadership. To do that, you have to have a vote. To have a vote, you have to become a voting member of the Party.

I don’t know how it works in your state. Go here and see if becoming a precinct committeeman might be something for which you’d have the time and inclination. I haven’t been able to find step-by-step instructions for every state on the web.

Click on the Nevada link and read about how conservatives in the various grass roots movements banded together and invaded and took over the Clark County GOP leadership, voting out all the squishes and replacing them with conservatives. How’d they do it? They created a conservative majority by all becoming precinct committeemen and then voted in new conservative leadership.

Wouldn’t you think the new GOP.com web site should have had, front and center on it, a link entitled something like, “Click Here To Come Into The Party As A Voting Member — It’s Easy and Gives You Real Political Power in Deciding Who Gets To Run The Party?” You might think that if you assumed the “powers that be” want conservatives to come into the Party voting ranks. They don’t. The “powers that be” like the status quo just fine.

Want change in the Republican Party? Then make it happen as a precinct committeeman.

Thank you.

No, I don’t write to support Republican and conservative victory. I write to support your right to engage in the speech that you do. And Rush does. And yes, that George Soros does too.

Try to influence who becomes the next chairman.

But they don’t listen to me anyway.

I warned ‘em about Specter — nothing.

I warned them about NCLB — nothing.

I warned them about the Rx drug benefit — nothing.

I warned tham about running up the deficit during Bush II — nothing.

I warned them abou TARP — nothing.

I warned them about McCain — nothing.

Now, what do we have in Washington? –
