Okay. So last night a Republican lost the presidential election. But as many of us know Senator McCain was not a true conservative. Now is the time for conservatism to take back the Republican party and run true to conservative values. We can’t sway whichever way the wind blows us. We need to stand firm with conservative values.
We need to dismiss some of the republican intelligencia in the media and the republican elites that pushed forth McCain as our candidate. On the platform for the Republican party should be limited government, adherence to our Constitution, low taxes, strong defense, strong border security, independent energy sources (drilling, natural gas, nuclear, coal), pro-life (left up to states), pro-Free Market, tort-reform to decrease medical care costs, state control of education, and cut spending on programs. What we need is a conservative coalition that isn’t made up of ‘country-club republicans’, but instead, of WE the ordinary people who value their freedom, the Constitution, and the ability to live their lives with the least amount of government interference. We can assemble around our Constitution and make sure that our leadership adheres to it. It is the opportunity that is laid before us. Are we going to take it?
