I’m still in depression over Tuesday’s fiasco. Our country is screwed for the next 4 years.

It’s a dark time for all true Christian conservatives. Mccain and the Republicans are less than worthless. The only bright spot in this election fiasco has been Sarah Palin.
We need to stay firm and get behind her with every inch of our support. The media and her own party are trying to discredit her regarding trivialities (wardrobe, etc). Does anyone care about her clothes? They can take all her clothes and we’ll be even bigger than ever for her.

I didn’t vote for McCain. I wrote in Palin for President.
Is anyone hearing any rumors that Palin may appoint herself to fill the soon to be open senate seat from Alaska? That would get her onto the national scene almost immediately. Just curious.

One final thought: We gotta have our own party.

Best regards! JDL

I’m not upset McCain Lost, I am upset that Obama won. If conservatives with principal would have come out and voted we would see it in the votes. I can’t see real conservatives voting for BO.
BO’s campaign was about all the things that America isn’t.

We all better start writing letters and getting our representatives in line. This is going to be a rough couple of years.

Well Fred I think we are in for a hell of fight WITH IN OUR OWN PARTY. to find one candidate that WE all can back. NONE of us could agree on one guy (except for Tancredo, Hunter and Thompson in the beginning…1 of those DID vote for the bailout, the other would have. Hunter didn’t so he has a leg up IMO.

The other thing we have to get passed in the future is the “He did this, so he is out” mentality.. Sometimes you have to give a little to get a lot down the road in Politics. I think we need to set some CLEAR LINES as conservatives that give a CLEAR message that says “You raise taxes, vote for amnesty, go after guns, support abortion rights, and spend like a drunken sailor, You are unemployed” Other than that we can discuss it. IMO.

105, here in AZ, also passed.

Other than that, it is indeed time to get working.

Well, at least Prop 8 passed, so somebody’s panties got bunched.

The GOP as we know it is dead…and good riddence. It’s time for Conservatives to take back the party, or to leave and start anew. I know starting over might take longer than some of us old farts will be around…but we can no longer work with the Washington DC elite, like Rudy, GW, and McCain….they are not us.

Sarah Palin and those like her are where we need to start over…..true Conservatives, both Social and Fiscal NEEDED FOR A NEW DIRECTION!

Well said Fred. I don’t begrudge your Barr vote at all! For years I was a registered Libertarian. My Mom actually ran for Lieutenant Govenor of Alaska on the Libertarian ticket and at one point my father held the highest office of *any* Libertarian nationally. So I was teethed on it! At one time I hoped that would become the third party that you say we need.

I hope you are right that we end up with simply a “failed one-term presidency” a la Jimmy Carter. No doubt that Obama is walking into a horrible mess. And those two rich guys that Obama was going to tax to pay for all his new programs moved out of the country so there is no way he can come close to delivering on most of his promises. Let’s hope this is another one of those periods where we don’t get all the government that we pay for!

I also don’t know who we elected last night. Obama is just a pretty face that can read a teleprompter well. He was selected and groomed for this. The Chicago Machine certainly acted as muscle for the campaign ["Of course I'm the Messiah. The dead rose to vote again!" ] … but I don’t yet know who the ultimate puppeteer is yet. And that scares me worse than Obama’s socialism (and I don’t scare easily!)

I was on a chatline at GoSarahPalin as the concession speeches were being given. As I noted, I was the only one in the group who had anything positive out of the election: at least we get our Governor back! [And despite the toxic media who was clearly marching in lockstep to tar and feather her, she has a real future on the national stage. Everyone wants to be the next Ronald Reagan. Sarah Palin may be it. The press denounced Reagan as a low-intellect lightweight his first couple of runs at the presidency also.]

And yes, Fred – she’s hot Thanks for the comment.

Keep up the good work!
