Why the GOP Can't be Trusted to Defeat Obama--And What to do Next

As we look forward to the 2012 presidential election, seemingly far, but fast approaching, we must realize a few realities of where we stand.  Maybe chief among them is the fact that the Republican power structure can't be trusted to oust Barack Obama--at least not on their own. 

For starters, the RNC is in disarray.  Even under new leadership, it shoulders $20 million in debt and that debt will cripple its efforts just as our national debt looms over government and hinders its effectiveness.  Even if everything goes according to the current plan, the RNC will enter 2012 with $10 million in debt, an unprecedented sum.  This is not to cast arrows, but neither should we ignore circumstances.

And perhaps more to the point is the fact that the Republican establishment is notorious for unforced errors.  We've all seen them go soft, sometimes because they're trying to be too clever and other times while trying to be nice, but nonetheless to the peril of the conservatives who comprise their base.

We saw it in the last presidential election when the McCain campaign voluntarily gave up the Jeremiah Wright story (among other things) as relevant, important, or even allowable topics of discussion.  Here at the Our Country Deserves Better Committee, we stepped up at the time to produce and air the necessary ads making Americans aware of Jeremiah Wright's (notably heated) rhetoric because we thought it was important, plenty of Americans agreed, and we were prepared to be an independent voice for conservatives. 

And now we may be seeing the same sort of behavior now as Republicans including the new House Majority Whip sign on to the idea of being literally undistinguished from the Obama Democrats during the upcoming State of the Union address. But don't feel defeated by this tendency on the part of some elected officials and party leaders.  Rather, be inspired and motivated to take up the slack & pick up where they leave off.

It's through independent principled efforts such as this campaign to defeat Barack Obama that we have the ability to not only keep the Republican party honest, but go to battle with the left most effectively.  But we certainly still need to have all the tools, teammates and training possible to be sure we're prepared to withstand and overcome the coming onslaught.

So as the Obama campaign team is assembling in Chicago and already reconstructing their network of large-dollar donors, we need to be building and activating the network that will be on the ground and prepared to stand up to them at every turn. 

To that end, please click the petition tab above if you haven't already and make sure you make use of the most bold way to show that you stand with us.  Then please click on at least a couple of the below links, connect with the effort, and start telling your friends.  The sooner people get involved, the sooner their friends can be invited as well, and if we're going to reach our goal of a million people signed up by election day, we'll need everyone's help all along the way.

So thank you all, and stay tuned for our TV ads coming out very shortly and other big announcements that will be forthcoming.  You'll want to be on the cutting edge as we get the jump on the left and start the campaign with the wind at our backs.

    Thanks for the information.

    I've been registered as a Republican since 1968. But, I think that the Republican Party doesn't look that much different from the Socialistic Democrats.

    America needs CHOICES, not just the same old promises, promises followed by devious underhanded political maneuvering in Congress.

    I choose to support the “Tea Party” because I believe “WE THE PEOPLE” are more trustworthy, right now, than any of our political parties.

    It's time to sweep the opponents of liberty from office and limit government to protecting the God-given rights granted by our Constitution.

    We must defund Obomacare now and defeat him in 2012 before America turns into a third world country like he is trying to make happen.

    I support the THE TEA PARTY, I believe in our CONSTITUTION, OUR FREEDOMS and THE PEOPLE OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA!!!

    obuma is an impostor who has knowingly committed fraud and therefore impeachment proceedings should begin forthwith and then criminal charges. The Republic of the United States is currently an internationally embarrassment and an economic domestic disaster because of this man and his cohorts. We have survived the brink of disaster before and we the people possess the fortitude to overcome again. The time has arrived to exercise our inherent rights and remove this man from office. Period. The time is now and we have the political means to accomplish this goal as granted in our Constitution. Let us not forget.

    I am concerned about the issues of POTUS's Citizenship, his religion, etc but we can not waste our time and efforts on these issues, that is where investigation and the courts need to do their jobs. We need to face the reality that we are going to be stuck with him until January 2013. We must mass together in a coalition of conservatives, tea partiers, independents to get our points across. And to insure we have a larger turn out at the polls than the opposition. Our futures depend on it.

    If Republican's vote with the liberal Democrat's to raise Tax I won't be voting Republican in 2012. Why waste my time voting if Republican's spend all their time pleasing Democrat's!

    Why vote for Mitt Romney who is being supported by Al Gore? Mitt Romney who is nothing but a progressive liberal. No difference in him and Obama! Republican's seem to help liberal democrat's not the people that voted them in office! I'm sick of it YUK, YUK, PUKE, PUKE!

    After what the Allen County Republican Party, did to Matt Kelty in his mayoral run for Fort Wayne In.
    I will never forgive that nest of copperheads.
    And the Progressive Republican party of Indiana
    will never get a red cent of my monies.
    Since you copperheads wanted Tom Henry that bad! I'll sent my extra money to his campaign.
    Now go digest that!

    We need to also charge people like Bill Ayers, Cass Sunstein, and Tom Lerner (orchestrated the mortagage collapse with ACORN, then forced banks to refi all this bad debt for more losses), for the acts of economic terrorism they have been committing and continue to do. Why are we ignoring this? We have ample audio and video proof of these plots to indict them. The same way we are currently holding Eric Holder accountable for lying and allowing an illegal gun scheme which backfired.

    Obama is taking your guns away, after which he can make you do anything he wants. Ask Fidel Castro and Pol Pot how this trick works. This a key critical component of a government coup plot and socialism/marxism/communism. You must spend time and energy to help defeat people like Hillary Clinton (UN small arms ban treaty), Sen. Dick Lugar, and many others.
