They wwant to be left alone and they want to keep their money, and they want to accept whoever they want whenever they want.<BR/><BR/>It is not about opposing various interest groups-it is about finding a common core of beliefs and uniting around that core.<BR/><BR/>There are gay conservatives, atheist conservatives, even pot smoking, rock and roller conservatives. They all have their quirks but many of them believe in the basic core of conservatism- less government, less taxed and less interfence in our lives.<BR/><BR/>So get over the trivial stuff and concentrate on the core.retgroclkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13538891152523408607noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9348302.post-70787319610533273992008-12-07T16:53:00.000-05:002008-12-07T16:53:00.000-05:00What have I done?

I drove around this county nearly every weekend in the rain and the cold during the primary and the general puting up those things. My truck is full of building materials. In gasoline alone I've contributed hundreds of dollars to the campaign.<BR/><BR/>I was the first to post an interview with Andy Harris, travelling to Crisfield to do it.<BR/><BR/>Who was the blogger who hounded Gilchrest for years? For years while you were busy branding.<BR/><BR/>For the last eight years I've trying to get the county GOP to embrace the Internet and set up list serves and candidate websites for Janete Greenip, Bob Duckworth, Terry Gilliland. I defended Tony McConkey after he was villified for winning his first primary.<BR/><BR/>Aside from that, not much.Mike Netherlandhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01277682258432084047noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9348302.post-35086942439140858332008-12-07T15:22:00.000-05:002008-12-07T15:22:00.000-05:00You have a lot of nerve to say that I have abandon...You have a lot of nerve to say that I have abandoned anything.<BR/><BR/>What have you done to help elect a good conservative recently?Brian Griffithshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12669403332071014146noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9348302.post-26493215976071670752008-12-07T14:55:00.000-05:002008-12-07T14:55:00.000-05:00Brian, You might be trying to elect conservatives,...Brian, You might be trying to elect conservatives, but as the last two elections have shown, your method is not working. To be fair, it is not your method, however it seems to be that of Generation '?' leaders like Margaret Hoover.<BR/><BR/>What I am trying to do is point out that you have willingly abandoned conservative core values and your own national heritage and have adopted liberal politically correct orthodoxy in conducting yourself socially and politically.<BR/><BR/>This is why we have lost in the past and why we will continue to lose until 'we' are no longer distinguishable from 'them.'Mike Netherlandhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01277682258432084047noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9348302.post-84515401730100127862008-12-07T13:02:00.000-05:002008-12-07T13:02:00.000-05:00Yeah....damn me for concerning myself with trying ...Yeah....damn me for concerning myself with trying to win elections and elect conservatives to office as opposed to doing whatever it is you're trying to accomplish with this.Brian Griffithshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12669403332071014146noreply@blogger.com
