There is a lot of discussion all over the new media and lots of recommendations on what Republicans should do now they've had successful 2010 elections. Here are some great suggestions from Pamela Geller:
"Government is not the answer -- it destroys everything it touches. We must take back the culture, becuase politics is merely a reflection of the culture. The left has the culture in a chokehold. They demonize the successful and hardworking and exalt failures, moochers and looters -- an inverted moral priority.
Our victory is the beginning of the 40 years war -- who is with me?
- We will repeal national socialist Obamacare.
- We will destroy all old propaganda media. New media is steamrolling over the deadmen walking.
- We will repeal the financial reform bill that scapegoated business for the abject failures of the fed.
- We will take back the college campuses.
- We will get on our childrens' school boards and, just like in Texas, change the whitewashed history books and review the syllabi.
- Get government out of our lives. Dismantle big government. Piece by piece.
- Deregulate business. Piece by piece. Sector by sector. Unshackle the motor of the country. Free the producer.
- We will volunteer in homeschooling networks. We will donate and offer our services in our respective areas of expertise.
- Unshackle America. Repeal "hate crime" legislation. All crime is hate. This is an attack on free speech. Islamic supremacists will invoke "hate speech" to kill free speech.
- We will expose and prosecute the subversives like CAIR, ISNA, ICNA, ISNA and all Muslim Brotherhood fronts whose stated aim is "eliminating and destroying Western civilization from within."
- We will call our mortal enemy by its rightful name: Islamic jihad.
- We will turn the Muslim Brotherhood into the Muslims Little Girlyhood.
- We will stop funding Ground Zero Mosque Imam Rauf's fund raising junkets to the Middle East.
- We will stop importing whole Muslim communities from Somalia under the "UN's Resettlement Program."
- We will ridicule, polarize, and render irrelevant the dogmatic, evil leftists.
- We will crush them with our logic and reason and concrete facts.
- We will demand reasoned discourse and laugh at their ad hominen attacks.
- RINOs will not be tolerated. Leave the party, join the traitors. Olympia Snowe and Susan Collins, take note.
- Drill baby, drill.
- We will raise the voting age to 21. Military excluded. If "children" are still on their parents health-care at 26, maybe 21 is too low.
- We will mandate trips for key liberals in leadership to Iran, Somalia, Darfur, et al, to watch clitorectomies, stonings, and gender apartheid.
- We will arrange for youth summer camps in Somalia and Darfur for Obama's youth corps, and tell them it's the peace corps for the lefties.
- We will demand accountability from the United Nations, or withdraw from it.
- We will save Israel from Islamic anti-semitism.
- We will disqualify the Organization of the Islamic Conference at the UN until there is an Organization of the Christian Conference and Organization of the Jewish Conference.
Sounds like a great start, Pam... I'm with ya!
Here's some good advice and new ways to think about the losses like Reid in Nevada, Boxer in California and Franks in Massachusetts. HillBuzz points out: "Harry Reid remains in the Senate to be the face of incompetence he’s always been. He’ll be an albatross around Obama’s neck for the next two years, and vice versa. Barbara Boxer returns to the Senate to remain the poster child of incompetence for the party. Moonbeam Jerry Brown has become the Governor of California, and will further run it into the ground in the next two years. Barney Frank remains a corrupt clown whose ties to the economic collapse continues to be a sore point for Democrats.
If any of these people had lost their elections, it’s true voters and America would have been better off. But, in terms of 2012 strategy, keeping them in office hurts Democrats as a party more than it actually affects America. These people are the faces of the party that continuously turn Independents away from Democrats…and they will keep doing that for another two years."
The HillBuzz boyz are verrry clever, yes?!
I also was mortified the majority of Illinois went "red" (Republican) in key seats include TheWon's old senate seat going to Kirk. Except Chicago... which remains Dems all around including the horrible communist J.Schakowsky. I found solace over at Patrick's World USA:
"For over a century here in the United States and for centuries in Europe, people who have clustered into big cities and high population centers have always had a need to be told what to do. It is normal human belief that when large groups of people live in such close quarters that there needs to be rules and codes of conduct. And for centuries they have chosen their leaders to be both nanny and disciplinarian.
In more open areas where there is more of a rural or pioneering type setting, people tend to want to self-regulate. They don't want groups or other people to tell them how to live, what to do with their land and most of all don't want themselves being forced to give up things that they earn from the sweat of their own brow so that people can live comfortably in large cities where services and peaceful living are considered entitlements rather than issues of personal responsibility."
- thus... -
"There are two philosophies. The inner city philosophy of top down rule and the rural more outside suburbanite philosophy of small limited government with bottom up rule. These will always clash unless those with the inner city mentalities who vote liberal like lemmings can be convinced that their lives will be much better off once they are weaned off the teet of the federal government (and ultimately unwilling taxpayers who don't live in or near the big cities).
The Shining City on a Hill need not be polished off the sweat of the brows of those who live in the valleys. Those who live in the city need to take responsibility for their own pad or plot and take pride in their communities and complex enough to believe that we are all capable of making the country a better place when we stop micro-managing and over-complicating things and take a more common sense approach to solving our problems."
A HA! DING DING DING! light bulb in my head - Patrick helped me understand the mindless, cluster Dems in Chicago a bit better now... Thanks Patrick, Boyz and Pamela!
