Dennis Prager
There is an American tradition of
voting not for the party, but "for the man." Unlike
Europeans, who are more ideologically driven, Americans
have prided themselves in assessing individuals of both
parties, and then voting for the more personally impressive
candidate...This is no longer the case. For better or for
worse, the notion of voting for the candidate rather than
the party is now mostly naive idealism. The Democratic Party
is now fully left-wing, and is simply the American version
of any European Social Democrat party. It is the party of
ever-expanding government. (The Republican Party, in contrast,
is -- at long last -- the party of small government.)

They
proved with ObamaCare that they WILL fall in line when they're
at the wire...They only vote against the leftist agenda when
they are GIVEN PERMISSION to do so by their leadership!! |

At this critical time in our country's
history, we must make this video go viral...We must remember
Reagan's pertinent and prescient words as we support our
Tip of the Spear Conservatives over the next two years and
as we gear up to send reinforcements in 2012...copy and
send this link ~
http://coloradopragerfans.com/index.htm#choosing
to everyone you know, PLEASE. It is
vital for everyone to see...So
get a cup of coffee and take the time ~ It's worth every
second of the 28 minutes. At the end of this speech, substitute
radical Islam for communism and even that part is as relevant
today as it was in 1964!
A Time for Choosing, also known as "The Speech,"
was presented on a number of speaking occasions during the
1964 U.S. presidential election campaign by Ronald Reagan
on behalf of Republican candidate Barry Goldwater.

(01/29/2010 first hour)
The 2009 and 2010 elections proved beyond a doubt that conservatives
can refuse to allow themselves to be splintered into impotent
third parties and can rally and take over the Republican
party by focusing on our most critical core values ~ We
must never lose sight of that goal in every campaign in every
corner of every State in the Union! |
| We
can reclaim the House and the Senate (as well as the rest
of our government) by keeping our sights on electing the
most conservative VIABLE candidate to every office in the
2012 elections ~ from Senators and Representatives all
the way through Governors, State Legislators, City Councils
and School Boards. We must commit to supporting the MOST CONSERVATIVE
candidate in each election who actually has a REAL chance
to win ~ NOT just the PERFECT conservative candidate. (REMEMBER:
PERFECTION DOES NOT EXIST IN THIS WORLD.) Whenever someone
says "I must vote my conscience," please remind
them that conscience means "with knowledge," so
refusing to vote for the most conservative candidate available
who actually has a REAL chance to win ~ because that candidate
is not PERFECT ~ means casting a vote WITH KNOWLEDGE that
will help elect the WORST, LEAST CONSERVATIVE CANDIDATE. |
General Election ~ Tuesday November 2, 2010
If we are honest we would all have to
admit we have turned a blind eye for too many years, letting
the left move forward with their agenda, getting our country to
the desperate state we currently find it. Let us now focus
with all our strength on encouraging our Tip of the Spear Conservative
legislators to hold down the fort until we can send reinforcements
in 2012 ~

Clear
the Bench Colorado
In 2010, FOUR THREE of
the current Colorado Supreme Court justices NEED YOUR
APPROVAL to be retained on the bench.
DON'T GIVE IT TO THEM! Ditch the Mullarkey Majority
- Vote "NO"
on ALL the justices up for approval/retention this year!
Justices Michael Bender, Alex Martinez, Nancy Rice and
Chief Justice Mary Mullarkey
DID YOU KNOW that you have the
right to vote "NO" on these unjust justices?
It's true – even Supreme Court justices in Colorado
ARE accountable to the people. In 2010, FOUR
(er, THREE now - since
Chief Justice Mullarkey quit rather than face the
voters in the November elections) of the current
Colorado Supreme Court justices NEED YOUR APPROVAL
to be retained on the bench.
WANTED Off the Supreme Court Bench,
for Aiding and Abetting...
* Unconstitutional Property
Tax Increases (Mill Levy Tax Freeze)
* Unconstitutional elimination of Tax Credits
& Exemptions (tobacco tax, "Dirty
Dozen" taxes)
* Unconstitutionally re-defining Taxes as
Fees (Colorado Car Tax, Ritter Gun Tax)
* Unconstitutional expansion of eminent domain
property seizures (Telluride Land Grab)
* Unconstitutional usurpation of legislative
power (judicial redistricting, school funding)

Republicans have taken control
of the Colorado House of Representatives 33 seats to 32.
Some notable Republican pick-ups:
Don Beezley in Broomfield HD33 over Dianne Primavera
Kathleen Conti Littleton HD38 over Joe Rice
Robert Ramirez in Arvada HD29 over Debbie Benefield by 221
votes
Mark Barker in Colorado Springs HD17 over Dennis Apuan
Libby Szabo in Arvada HD 27 over Sara Gagliardi,
Keith Swerdfeger in Pueblo HD47 over Carole Partin
In the State Senate,
Republicans fell short of claiming a majority, but picked
up SD6 in Durango-area.
Republican Ellen Roberts won the seat from Democrat Bruce
Whitehead. The Democrats hold a 20-15 majority.
Some really close
races:
Democrat John Morse held Colorado Springs SD11 over Republican
Owen Hill by 252 votes.
Democrat Judy Solano in Brighton HD31 beat Republican Tom
Janich by 366 votes.
Democrat John Soper in Thornton HD34 beat Republican Brian
Vande Krol by 292 votes.
Democrat Jeanne Nicholson in mountain counties SD16 beat
Republican Tim Leonard by 518 votes.
Democrat Michael Bennet was elected to his appointed US
Senate seat and John Hickenlooper and Joseph Garcia won
the Governor/Lt. Governor's seats.
Republican John
Suthers won re-election as Attorney General.
Significant Republican
pick-ups include Walker Stapleton for Treasurer and Scott
Gessler for Secretary of State.
Regrettably, all
of the Colorado Supreme Court Justices have been retained,
in spite of Matt Arnold's best efforts to Clear the Bench.
Amendment 63, which
would have protected Coloradoans rights to pay for private
health care in anticipation of Obamacare creating a single-payer,
nationalized system, was defeated despite of Jon Caldera's
outstanding leadership.
On the national level, Republicans took
control of the House of Representatives 239 to 185 with
11 races not yet called. Bye, Nancy!
Democrats still hold
the US Senate 51 with a 51 seat majority.
Of 37 gubernatorial
races, Republican governors won 23 and now hold the majority
of state's chief exec positions. This is very significant
as the governors determine the majority makeup of legislative
district reapportionment committees.
Our thanks to all the Republican candidates
who ran. Danny Stroud, Kaarl Hoopes, Christine Mastin, Dr.
Mike Fallon, Ryan Frazier, Joshua Scharf, Pauline Olvera,
Karen Cullen, Edgar Johansson, Brad Wagnon, Derec Shuler
and John Odom are just some of the standout leaders who
ran good campaigns, worked hard, and carried the Republican
banner of personal responsibility, individual freedom, and
less government intervention.
Thank you to all
of you for making our republican form of government the
best in the world!

How Republicans
Can Blow the Coming Election
by Phyllis Schlafly
Pundits are predicting that Republicans could pick up 40 to 100
seats in the U.S. House this November. But Democrats are about
to unveil their secret weapon to keep Nancy Pelosi in her catbird
seat.
What could be the magic bullet with the potential to discredit
the Republican Party as a vehicle for Americans opposed to Barack
Obama's radical changes? The answer is Mexican trucks, a foolish
idea left over from the George W. Bush era, and some Republicans
are on the verge of drinking the Kool-Aid.
This month, Transportation Secretary Ray LaHood, the former Republican
congressman from Peoria, Ill., told a Senate subcommittee that
he would soon announce a plan to allow Mexican trucks to drive
their loads on U.S. roads. He said the timing of this decision
is "closer than soon." more

NOT allow our Constitution to be trampled by out-of-control
legislators. They think they can ignore us and destroy us, but
TeaPartiers, 9-12ers and a multitude of other Grass Roots organizations
are energized and refocused.
Dennis
Prager maintains we are "in a battle for the American system"
and must focus on the Republican candidates because "they
are the only ones who can beat the leftists." (01/29/2010
first hour)

third parties and can rally and take over the Republican party

We
must ultimately unite our efforts into an unstoppable juggernaut
to reclaim our liberties, reclaim our Constitution, reclaim
our Country..We CAN unite in reestablishing a government that
is truly of the People, by the People and for the People!
