Conventional wisdom be damned. It's conventional wisdom that has gotten us into this mess! The Socialism lite, that this administration has been feeding us, is merely a remedy for a slower death!

Unfortunately, aside from all the pundits and prognosticators, the vast majority of the American Public is "asleep at the wheel" with regard to our Country's dire condition and will most probably remain so until it's too late to save.....and we're already about there.

Romney and Gingrich are part of the Republican Elite that got us into this mess. Romney gave the citizens of Taxachussetts Obamacare lite and thinks Mass. gun laws are fine, just like the hero of Chappaquiddick. Gingrich is a CFR member, think New World Order. When kommandant klinton started closing parks and monuments in 95 Gingrich could not jump fast enough to pass the budget and castigated House members that would not go along. Name one agency, bureau, department, rule, regulation, law, etc. that was abolished when he was Speaker. Both of these ###### (you fill in the words) think they have a divine right to be king (oops President) same as Dole and McCain. And then there is Karl Rove. As Bush the Younger's advisor he brought us No Child Left Behind, incandescent light bulb ban, pushed amnesty for illegal aliens (oops undocumented workers), etc. Now he is now advising the Republican Big Shots (you can't call them leaders). The Republicans are now negotiating with the communists (oops democraps) on the budget. So much for convential wisdom.

We need to get behind Herman Cain, he's our best hope for a stick-to-his-guns-conservative and as a bonus he takes the demo-commies' favorite attack, the race card, off the table.

Matt- stop pushing your old boss Gingrich. He is part of the problem with old line Republicans. We must have new blood. Know that any conservative who is attractive (intelligent, good looking, well spoken) are all going to be attacked viciously by the Damnocrats and the media out of extreme fear. The message has to be clear. America was sold a bill of goods in 2008. Is it going to buy another one in 2012? Follow the Reagan candidacy. All the experts said he could not win. But he was sincere with the American people, did not speak typical political BS, and asked, "Are you better off now than 4 years ago?", a very pointed question that could be asked again with a resounding "NO"!" as the answer from most people. Think about all those voters who cannot get jobs, who were laid off, contractors who have no work, laborers who are barely working, part-time employees who cannot get full time work, degreed people cutting grass and sacking groceries for a living. Then the candidate proposes how to fix the problem. Open up the Gulf to drilling and put 150,000 people back to work.Open up BLM and federal lands to drilling and put another 200,000 back to work while reducing crude oil prices drastically. Cut the welfare programs that are sucking the investment money out of America. The dope dealers and high school dropouts don't vote; why worry about cutting them off welfare? Provide for veterans, old folks, and the truly disabled. Quit sending money to countries who hate us. Get our military out of regions of the world where our only interest is oil, and develop our own vast resources. Let America do what it does best, and that is innovation. Our economy may soon sink to levels that will make the depression look like the roaring twenties. The so-called financial and investment people mostly missed the boat in 2008-2009, and will likely miss it again, causing us to lose our savings irrecoverably. When the value of stock goes to zero, it cannot come back. A bold candidate must take this bull by the horns and speak plainly with common sense. No more mealy mouthed slogans like "Hope and Change" (Obama) or "Change" (Bill Clinton), or all of Jimmy Carter's empty promises, or George H.W. Bush's "But I gave you a war and we took back Kuwait!" (3 years earlier, and nothing since). Right now Herman Cain might be able to pick up the guilty white man's vote. One of the conservative women might be able to pick up some women's votes, but not those of the pro-aborts. Another concern is that the conservatives must have poll workers in every polling place to assure that the Damnocrats do not steal yet another election. They have tried in many, and succeeded in some. The way to stop it is to put bold, qualified, and knowledgeable people at every polling place watching the machines and the ballot boxes.
