Here’s the point: the Party does have good conservatives in it who are willing to take positions of Party leadership, but they won’t get elected into those positions unless the Party has a solid majority of conservatives in the PC ranks. As a PC, you can devote as much or as little time to other PC tasks such as helping to get out the vote on election day and informing the voters in your precinct about the best candidates, how best to vote on initiatives, etc. Politics matter. Look at the outcome of the last election. But to be able to vote for the Party leadership, a conservative registered Republican voter must be a PC. It’s that simple.

If you're not, it doesn't hurt to spread the word to those who are.
I agree, won't hurt to try this. From what I've seen in Texas though, is that some really stupid people control every precinct, and G*d forbid anyone should ever come in and change anything. Including the stupid way of doing things that don't work. It is obstinate, deliberate, blind stupidity, and they truly believe the have the inside track to success. How hard is it to get them to change? They sik the cops, the city, the county, and anyone else they can find on you to harass you out of their sphere. Lying, cheating, stealing and even murder are no obstacle. It's THEIR precinct, and you just live in it. Fiefdom is too soft a word for it.
ReplyDeleteI'm in Texas, in a populous county. I am a precinct chairman and plan to get re-elected in '10. We have too many vacant chairs and with some like minded folks involved with t-party and other orgs am seeking and encouraging strong minded, pissed off folks to get on board. The d party is totally fokked, the r party can be salvaged. The move to 3rd parties is a waste of energy and time. We start by cleaning our backyards, I have no possibility of firing some dick CONgresscritter in NJ but I can damn well keep my corner of Texas in order...if I fail guess I'll see y'all in some bombed out craphole takin' pot shots at Leviathan's cannon fodder. Cheers!
