Start Today For Real Conservative Victory Within the GOP In 2010/12
10-19-08 Today it appears likely that McCain and the GOP will suffer political defeat in the 2008 elections and now it is too late for even a major foreign policy or terror event or quick solution to the financial crisis to change the outcome of the election. This is not the fault of John McCain or Sarah Palin as I doubt even Ronald Reagan, if he could return in our hour of need, win this election following the total disaster and failure that was the Bush Administration.
America risks a "filibuster proof" majority" liberal Democrat Party supermajority controlling the White House, Senate and the House of Representatives which will force a socialist program of wealth transfer, increased regulatory and tax burdens and a leftist social agenda on our nation.
This is the direct result of voter repudiation of the eight year disaster of the Bush/Cheney Administration when the party elites turned their backs on previous winning conservative and relatively free market policies of the GOP, Newt Gingrich and Ronald Reagan at home and abroad. Sadly, our nation has already suffered enough from the Neocon coup d'etat in foreign affairs plus the GOP incestuous relationship with big oil and Wall Street interests and their speculative excesses. The result has been a global market & credit crisis followed by the subsequent $700 billion taxpayer bailout strongly opposed by the conservative grassroots in the GOP but touted by the Bush Administration and the leadership of both parties as "a quick fix to prevent immediate financial Armageddon".
Of course the bailout failed to work as promised for main street and we have not avoided the market meltdown and credit squeeze which is now circling the globe. Although the bailout worked for the Wall Street cronies of Paulson and others, to date it has been a total failure for homeowners, stockholders and main street resulting now in a faltering economy, real estate crash, partial bank nationalization and a federal deficit soaring this year towards $1 trillion dollars.
As if this wasn't bad enough, now the public and voting electorate have found their jobs, retirement savings, credit and prosperity threatened by the global recession/depression sweeping around the world which started here in the United States on the presidential watch of George Bush. It began first in the secretive actions of Alan Greenspan and the Federal Reserve's easy money policies at the urging of Wall Street followed by liberal Democrat attempts to guarantee everyone a home regardless of credit or income standards. Now the global crisis and economic meltdown is upon us and this threatens electoral defeat for the McCain-Palin ticket and Republican candidates across the nation. .
However electoral defeat today can be turned into future election victories in the 2010 and 2012 elections if Americans begin now to restore real conservative leadership to the GOP at the national, state and local levels. This will not be easy as many false Neocon and Wall Street interests who often use our conservative slogans and talking points only at election time will fight us every step of the way because in essence they are identical to the Democrat special interests only interested in gorging themselves at the public trough. It appears the eight years of Bush, Wall Street speculation and Neocon foreign policy will be followed by 2 to 4 years of Democrat Party socialism and this two pronged attack may well bankrupt our nation, destroy the dollar and our economy.
Still, this may be a price we are forced to pay for true conservative Republicans to recapture our party leadership and turn the country back to conservative economic and political solutions in 2012 and away from the elites in both parties who have done so much damage to our nation. After four years of Obama and eight years of Bush, America will have had enough of liberal socialism, bailouts for Wall Street interests and speculators at home and the costs and perpetual wars of our Neocon empire abroad. Just maybe the American people will finally realize the real threats to their freedom, liberties and prosperity are not just the distant extremists in Iran, Russia, China or even Islamic terrorists who want to destroy our nation. The real immediate threat comes from inside our nation in Washington, Wall Street and the Hollywood left coast liberals who have taken control of both political parties and our country.
America must elect a dedicated social & free market conservative for President in 2012. We believe Sarah Palin and real conservatives in the GOP, Democrats and third parties must come together to save the Republic and our economy though tried and true polices of the free market over special interest bailouts, incorporating responsible debt levels for the public and private sectors where America will again relearn how to responsibly live within our means following the political ideals and foreign policy of our Patriot Founding Fathers. It is time for a real change back to conservative economic and political solutions in 2012 before it is too late and the election of true conservatives starting in 2010 and Sarah Palin as President in 2012 will be major steps for a change in the right direction! - Ron Holland
