In some ways I'll be glad when this election is over and in the history books. This campaign has been the most involved many of us have ever been. It seems that with all the talk and hype over Obama and Hillary, that the GOP became the forgotten party. And I think that is a pretty good assessment of the Republican party. Conservatives have forgotten ourselves, and our values. G.W. Bush was a great leader in a time of trial, but Conservatives in both houses must have sipped from the wrong water fountains on Capitol Hill. Many got a whopping dose of "stupid" (could have been Michael Jackson's "Jesus juice") and spent OUR money like a drunken sailor on shore leave (my apologies to my drunken sailor friends for comparing you to a politician). But that still doesn't mean that the Conservative movement is dead. There are a handful of responsible minded Republican candidates out there that need our support. These folks are "Palinesque" in their approach to government spending and waste. Like Newt Gingrich and Glenn Beck have said - "Seek these people out and support them!"
There are many worries that many of you share with me about what will happen on Tuesday. My biggest one is voter fraud. I have written about this over the summer, and added other comments elsewhere. There are so many organizations that are out there trying to register people to vote that it is very likely that 33% percent of the votes accross America will be tainted. I watched a local news story here in El Paso about a woman who took her mother (a 80-something Latina) to register to vote in Las Cruces, New Mexico. In September, they were at a Wal-Mart (a FREAKIN' WAL-MART!!) to do this. But when the lady went to go and do the early voting she was not on the register. The cops and the county election commissioner think that it was somebody stealing identities -- hmmm, ya think!?! So some illegal probably has her information and got into the states and is probably voting somewhere else. I love what the commissioner said - "Its unfortunate, but until the law is changed that allows outside organizations to register people to vote, there's nothing we can do." THAT IS THE SOLUTION TO THE VOTER FRAUD PROBLEM!! ONLY THE COUNTY ELECTION BOARD SHOULD BE ALLOWED TO REGISTER PEOPLE TO VOTE. None of this "motor voter" crap. None of ACORN or LULAC's shennanigans. THE GOVERNMENT SHOULD DO ITS JOB AND NOT FARM THIS ONE OUT!!! ITS TOO @*#$% IMPORTANT!!!
