Back in business.

You are absolutely right. Why create a third party when "we surround them", and we have the power and the will to elect reps that hold our values.

A third party in principle would be great. We could start from scratch and vote the people in that this country needs. Having said that, the reality is that this is a two party system at this point, and we need to move the people that we want and need into (in my opinion) the Republican party. The RINOs must go, and be replaced by Conservatives who share our values. Going third party at this point would be a disaster for our cause. We are in the early stages of our "awakening" and we need to proceed deliberately. On Sarah Palin....... I like her, but 2012 may be too soon for her.

I totally agree. We need to put in place elected officials that will adhere to the Constitution that has made this the greatest country in history. Moving away from the Constitution is what got us into this mess. My point is that it may be too tempting for some to resist the CC notion, and good intentions could yield disasterous results.

On it's face it seems like something that we must do, but given the embedded corruption in all levels of government, we may get something that we did not bargain for.

What do you all think?

What do they know that we don't?
Many are puzzled that Democrats persist in ramming unpopular and destructive legislation down our collective throats with no apparent concern for their plummeting poll numbers.

The MSM can run, but they cannot hide. These stories will be part of the foundation on which 2010 will be the turning point in American politics. Each one of these have shone light on what is really going on in this country, and people are taking notice without the bogus media's help. They do not matter anymore.

There is a global warming POLL at the bottom right of the page at this link.
