No, Conservatives, the Sky isn't falling

Friends,

Over the past few months, we Conservatives (mainstream Americans) in this great nation, have been dealt some serious body blows.  Most notably, the Supreme Court ruling that Obamacare could become the law of the land (but there is silver lining in this too) and Barack Hussein Obama being "re-elected" in 2012 (I use that term loosely as I don't believe he was legitimately elected).  Most recently, of course, we watched the usual CAVING by the GOP in the House and the Senate regarding funding the government and Obamacare.  It might seem like hope is lost, that we are down, but I promise, we are CERTAINLY not out!

There have been some articles written about why we shouldn't be too depressed, the most recent by David Limbaugh, but they only scratched the surface.  Friends, not to sound too cheery or even happy (I am not) because we are witnessing truly dark times in our nation, but I am like my hero, Ronald Reagan: I am an eternal optimist.  And, therefore, I think we Conservatives, have the Liberals right where we want them.  In fact, I woke up the other day excited and inspired by the fact that we lost.  Counter-intuitive, right?  Maybe.  Too much like Polyanna?  Perhaps, but hear me out.  We, Conservatives, are WINNING!  Here is why:

First, we have witnessed the death of the modern GOP.  FINALLY!  This is a good thing and I couldn't be more excited about it.  I don't believe there will be the rise of a third party, nor should there be...but, as Reagan said, we need a revitalized SECOND Party.  The only reason John Boehner was able to push through the CR was that he got help from the Democrats.  Only 81 Republicans in the House, ALL RINO'S, joined with him.  The majority of House Republicans held firm.  So, while the GOP appeared to lose, I would argue that we won.  There are rumors that the Conservative wing of the party is planning on ousting Boehner from his speakership, and I pray this is true.  Friends, when your own party can't give you the votes to win, then we are doing something right!  And it was because of US, the grassroots, that allowed the House Conservatives to hold firm!  We the People prevailed, and if not for siding with the enemy, we would have carried the day.  My point: Boehner's days are numbered as is the rest of the RINO surrender caucus in the GOP.  Watch for the rise of the Tea Party within the GOP.  Watch for the NEW/Conservative Republican Party. How do I know?  See below:

Ted Cruz and Mike Lee are heroes.  Like Rand Paul before them, these two brave Senators, took to the Senate floor and fought HARD to defeat Obamacare.  And, while the media is hailing Cruz a failure, the fact that they are still talking about Ted Cruz and the Tea Party, means that they were successful.  After all, why would the media and the Establishment of both parties, continue to hammer Cruz if he lost...if he was irrelevant?  To the contrary: Ted Cruz witnessed a meteoric rise to the top of the GOP food chain.   He now tops polls for Republican nominees for President in 2016 and ran away with the top vote at the Voters Values Summit.  A big deal for a man who is a "pariah."  What Liberals (both Republican and Democrat) fail to realize, is that Ted represents the will of the American people.  We understand that Obamacare is a bad deal.  We understand that we don't need the government to function and we have been pining for a hero...a man or woman who would stand up and FIGHT for and ARTICULATE our values.  Cruz did just that and he has turned the face of the GOP upside down.  Without Cruz and Lee fighting for our values, we never would have had a voice...the GOP would have caved several weeks ago without so much as a fight.  Cruz caused the base to light up the phones, to stand with them.  Cruz won; Conservatives won.  More importantly, however, the number of Tea Party members is growing.  Again, just look at how the Republican Establishment and the Liberal media continue to bash the Tea Party...even while they say that the Tea Party is a small fringe movement.  Remember, they wouldn't talk about the Tea Party or Cruz if both were irrelevant.

Third, we the people are rebelling against the politicians.  Think about what has happened recently. I already mentioned that thanks to the grassroots, Republicans held firm for awhile, allowing the American people to see that it was the Democrats and the President who refused to compromise.  But, think more crucially: when Obama blocked the World War 2 monument, the Veterans, led by Conservatives in the House like Steve King, TORE DOWN the barricades and carried them to the White House.  The President and his minions felt that they needed riot patrol to reign in these senior citizens.  Too, people in our state parks and at the Lincoln Memorial jumped the barricades, basically telling the government that they could, well, go jump in a creek.  And, what about Obamacare?  The signature "achievement" of Obama's Presidency is a disaster!  Not only are there glitches and problems with the ACA site, but only VERY few Americans, even in Liberal states, have signed up.  The question should be, WHY is this happening?  If Obama was "re-elected" because of Obamacare, surely more Americans would already be registered, but they are not.  There are THREE other important things to note about the people rebelling: in CO, for example, the people of the states are recalling anti-gun politicians at a fast pace.  The state that voted for Obama is revolting against the Democrat anti-gun policies.  Already, TWO Democrat Senators have lost, and a third is currently being targeted for defeat.  To make things worse, almost 15% of those wanting recall are Democrats!  Second, we are seeing the secessionist movements of certain states/counties heating up.  So much so, that some places have already passed ordinance to secede.  If they are successful, that would be a huge step to thwarting the Democrat political machine.  Finally, although we lost the race in NJ, just think about what happened: Steve Lonegan, a TEA PARTY Republican, only lost the state by 10%.  Mitt Romney, on the other hand, lost the state by 16%.  Conservatism is working.  We are winning.

Fourth, we get another try at the funding measures.  I don't expect much to change, but we will have other votes in January and February, to fund the government.  It will be a prime time to start the battle again, and fight we shall.  If Boehner is gone, I look for the GOP to hold firm and defund, if possible, Obamacare.  But, this is more of a wait and see scenario.  Remember, elections are coming up soon and...

Finally, elections have consequences!  The Left wing media and the Democrats are already crowing about winning the House back in 2014.  If this happened, it would be catastrophic, but it won't happen.  Remember, Pelosi also said they'd win the House in 2012, yet the Democrats remained in the minority, and Republicans swept into power with 27 governorship and won state legislatures in many other states (most notably, NC, WI, MI and MN).  This time, Charlie Cook and others say that they only expect 10 House seats to be in play...FAR from enough needed to give the Democrats a majority.  Furthermore, with Obamacare as their signature achievement, I think the Democrats will lose seats in the House.  I also expect the Democrats to lose the Senate in a big way.  It is still early, but I think we will see a Democrat minority in both houses and a lame duck President.  But, more importantly, by my count, we have at least SEVEN Republican seats that Conservatives are targeing for takeover.  Seats held by Sens. Alexander, Graham, McConnell, Cornyn, Enzi, Roberts, etc are all being targeted for Tea Party takeovers.  In GA, RINO Saxby Chambliss is retiring.  We might not win all the seats that we target, but we will win a few...and, with a stronger Conservative presence in the Senate, RINO's will be less successful in selling us out.

Bottom line, friends, keep the faith.  We are a GREAT nation and our country has been through a lot.  Remember, not too long ago, the Establishment and the media wrote off a "Cowboy" from California.  Well, in 1980, that "Cowboy" won our nomination and the Presidency in a landslide.  We are winning again, folks.  I promise.  But, we must never stop fighting until we have defeated the Left completely.

God bless you all!
