Among the lessons to be learned from the painful defeat
in Wisconsin's recent elections that Republicans and
conservatives of all stripes must heed are:
1) We must always remember that our true enemy is
the Democrat party, with their candidates and their
planks in their party platform; NOT each other.
2) Fundraising is vitally important to our candidates'
campaigns and their chances for victory. Campaign
donations are the mother's milk of electoral success.
We must keep on reminding our longtime campaign
donors of the other side relentlessly raising out-of-state
money which is giving them not just an edge, but a
gaping chasm. Furthermore, we should look for new
donors, both well-to-do and those with more modest
means. Some elections in other states have been won
with many modest campaign contributions from
the latter group of voters; the "Widow's Mite"
has might!
3) Campaigns are largely fought on the battlefield of
ideas, contrasting ideas, and public opinion. These
battles should NOT be fought like a boxing match
under the Marquis of Queensbury rules. We must
fight with ferocity for what we stand for, for what
we represent! Let's get in the trenches and blast it
out with our foe!
4) On both the primary and general election days,
we must get out of our comfy chairs, put on our
hats and coats, and go to our polling precincts to
vote. As I have said before, if you choose not to
vote you still have voted. You will have helped
opposition to win. That is exactly what happened
a few weeks ago. So it ultimately comes down
to this: Vote! Vote! VOTE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
There it is, my fellow Wisconsin Righties,
from the state GOP bigwigs to the candidates
to the campaign team staff, both volunteers and
salaried, to the voters who make up our conservative
electorate.
Get it? Got it? Good!
