Image that you first at bat in professional baseball is in the world series facing a Cy Young award winning pitcher with a MVP catcher standing behind you. That does not even come close to the pressure faced by Jim Deakin in the Senate debates with sitting Senator and former presidential candidate John McCain and former Congressman and professional media man JD Hayworth. I cannot | Read More »

Our county, Pinal AZ, completed the election of its PCs. Because there were no contested seats the County Board of Supervisors voted to not place names on ballots and receive all PC candidates into their elected offices. My wife and I received our election certificates yesterday. In 2008 there were 94 elected GOP PCs in Pinal. In 2010 there are 154, 1/3 of which are | Read More »

The first battles of the 2010 election war, and perhaps the most telling, are the contested primaries between moderate, establishment backed Republicans and conservative challengers. The lesson of 2010 to date is that conservative activists and Tea Parties can take out moderate establishment Republicans in a contested primary IF they effectively work together.   The victories of 2010 include Charlie Crist pulling out of the | Read More »

With few exceptions, the main stream media and operatives of both political parties cannot seem to understand the nature and import of the Tea Party movement. This recent Ron Fournier AP story on msnbc.com illustrates the lack of understanding of the movement when they conclude that the Tea Party movement is unlikely to dramatically affect the congressional elections unless local Tea Party affiliates forge alliances | Read More »

When I got to speak to the group I asked them why we, in the form of the states, were not dealing with the problem directly under Art. V of the Constitution in | Read More »

Who needs the current Administration and Congressional Democrats violating our rights when Sen. McCain can do it for them? A close reading of S3081, the “Enemy Belligerent, Interrogation, Detention, and Prosecution Act of 2010″, introduced by Sen. John McCain would allow the U.S. military to detain U.S. citizens indefinitely without being charged with a crime, without being read a Miranda warning, without trial, without access | Read More »

The LA Times has discovered the PC project and the takeover of the GOP. Unlike the article a few weeks ago in the NY Times, this one is better researched and somewhat more accurate.  In the last few weeks there have been articles in major main stream media papers on our activities ( NY Times, WSJ, etc.) Main stream press like this is a double | Read More »

For the last two months I’ve been in a running dialog and battle with my two Senators from Arizona, McCain and Kyl, on healthcare and other issues. I’ve spent hours on the phone with their staffs in DC, attended county and state GOP meetings which were also attended by Senators and been the target of McCain during Q&A at a county meeting where he demonstrated | Read More »
