Romney May Be the End of the Line for the Republican Establishment

September 21, 2012: A Commentary by Scott Rasmussen - Mitt Romney's comments about 47 percent of Americans being dependent on government and locked in to vote for President Obama highlight a fundamental reality in American politics today: The gap between the American people and the political class is bigger than the gap between Republicans and Democrats in Washington, D.C.

At the State Central Committee Meeting in Albany on February 5, Oregon Republicans passed the 2012 ‘Freedom Primary’...

The Oregon Republican Party, seeking to become more competitive in a state where most major offices are held by Democrats, announced Monday that it will open its May primary for three statewide offices to non-affiliated voters.  Oregon Republican Chairman Allen Alley said the party will allow these voters to cast ballots in the primary races for attorney general, secretary of state and treasurer.  However, non-affiliated voters won't be allowed to vote in the presidential primary, in legislative primaries or in any partisan races for local office.

Help build an army of conservative activists...

7/30/2010 by John Eidson (via email/PART 2) - Enlighten the uninformed - A recent national survey showed that twice as many Americans identify themselves as conservative as do those who consider themselves liberal. If there are more of us than there are of them --- and there are -- then how did Democrats win such a resounding victory in the last election? The answer is because millions of apathetic voters still habitually get what little news they expose themselves to from the heavily-biased mainstream media. Many otherwise conservtive people rarely watch Fox News, listen to talk radio or read conservative books, magazines or blogs. Most of these political couch potatoes have no idea how radically the country they love is being changed. Make it your job to help enlighten them.

A CONSERVATIVE VOTE IS A TERRIBLE THING TO WASTE
If you have frinds or family members who are clueless about what's happening to America, try your best to get them to watch Fox News (particularly The Glenn Beck Program) and listen to conservative talk radio. Urge them to sign up for free daily emails from The Heritage Foundation and DickMorris.com, check out the Drudge Report, read the online opinion pages of The Wall Street Journal and the Washington Examiner, and frequent blogs such as Powerline, Michelle Malkin and American Thinker. And, make sure that all conservative-minded people you know are registered to vote.

John asks... When is the last time you added new names to your political email group? If you're sending emails to the same people all the time, you're not doing as much as you could to spread the conservative message. Adding new people to your e-group isn't hard to do -- all you have to do is ask. Expanding your list by just one name each week will make a big difference in alerting more people to what's happening to their country. Read More......

Tax hike SUPPORTERS offer poll showing voters favor Measures 66, 67

OREGON LIVE, 12/30/3009 by Harry Esteve - Proponents of two ballot measures that would increase taxes released poll results today showing strong voter support for both measures. ∴ The poll, paid for by Vote Yes for Oregon, a labor-backed group that supports the tax increases, shows that with less than two weeks before ballots go out, voters say they favor Measure 66 by a margin of 55 percent to 38 percent, with 7 percent undecided. The numbers are identical for Measure 67. ∴ Measure 66 sets higher tax brackets for high income earners. Measure 67 raises taxes on corporations. The vote-by-mail election is Jan. 26. ∴ "The key message coming through is, these measures are better than the deep cuts to services everyone cares about," said Scott Moore, spokesman for Vote Yes for Oregon. "And they're better than broad-based tax increases that affect the middle class." ∴ The survey was conducted last week by Greenberg Quinlan Rosner Research, of Washington D.C. It sampled opinions from 610 likely voters statewide. ∴ Opponents of the tax hikes discredited the poll as a public relations stunt. Advocacy groups typically keep their polling private, said Pat McCormick, spokesman for Oregonians Against Job-Killing Taxes. ∴ Releasing the results to the news media "is clearly intended to sway public opinion in their direction" -- not find out how voters are leaning, McCormick said. "These data are not an accurate reflection of where voter attitudes are." Read More......

Candidates face ultimatum: Kill Obamacare, or else ...

WORLDNET DAILY, 12/29/2009 by Chelsea Schilling - 'Americans have to pull this weed out by its roots.' ∴ Tea-party leaders are delivering a bold ultimatum to all congressional candidates in 2010: Pledge to repeal the health-care reform bill in its entirety if it passes – or you will be booted from office. ∴ FreedomWorks Press Secretary Adam Brandon told WND the message couldn't be any clearer. Asked whether he believes the tea party movement will seek to oust politicians who refuse to repeal the legislation, he emphatically declared, "Absolutely." Read more at WND...
