IT'S AN OBAMA-NATION

Well, I've had about 24hrs to digest the election results and I am calm enough now to put finger to keyboard and put my thoughts down now that the shock has worn off. First off, I put the blame squarely on the GOP's shoulders for failing and allowing this to happen. They had plenty of time to "get it right". Historically speaking, whomever throws the most money at the election wins. Clearly the GOB was outspent here in my area. It was evident in the number of signs out and the lack of McCain campaign ads on the media. The GOP is going to have to pull together and "find" a message that resonates with the masses. They have to find or make a candidate that is sell-able and not as old as John McCain. In my conversations with many who would not vote for him, they all cite his age as a huge detractor. If the GOP is thinking about Sara Palin, they need to do everything right to make her more palatable to the masses. In all the people I have talked to, they either loved her or hated her. That is not good. They need to rehabilitate her image in such a manner as to be more appealing to a broader base. Secondly, all conservative need to organize and get a plan together that will help get the conservative agenda out there and stand united in the cause. Now that the House and Senate elections have been decided, now is the time for all conservatives to watch all the bills that the Congressmen and Senators are working on and let them know what you think they need to do. We have 2 years to the next congressional and senate races and 4 to the next primary. Lets role our sleeves up and get to work. Click on the title to go to a good congress watch site.
