Picking out rays of light

There is a lot to be upset about if you are a classical liberal. However, there is also a lot to be excited about. For one thing, we don't have to worry about John McCain stabbing us in the back from the White House anymore. This election was lost the day he won the nomination and true classical liberals know it. I saw Dick Morris on Hannity and Communist Colmes tonight talking about how whoever is running the government is going to be taking the fall for the incoming economic strife and that might be well and good, but the fact of the matter is that I would not be happy right now if McCain had won, I would be merely relieved. But it would be an uneasy feeling because right around the corner we would have him falling all over himself to do anything Reid or Pelosi desired. And the real tragedy in that scenario is that Palin would be stuck on that sinking ship. As it stands, we can simply trust in faith that our Creator (founding father language) will preserve our rights over at least the next two years. During this time, we need to hang tough and get a battle plan. 

 This battle plan is going to involve getting a Real Classical Liberal such as Palin or Jindal to assume the leadership position in the party. I heard also today something about Newt possibly chairing the RNC and that is a fantastic thing if it turns out to be the case.  I'm not a fan of Newt as far as being an elected official but the man is a brilliant mind and just a sick sick strategist. One thing that struck me about the pathetic McCain campaign is the total lack of a ground game. When W was running I was banging on doors and kicking the dial pad to get the vote out. I heard absolutely nothing from McCain people about it and to be perfectly honest, I would have been hard pressed to even find the stomach to campaign for him. The fact of the matter is that there is no GOTV effort by a campaign that was run like a funeral dirge save for Palin. This has got to change and it is only going to happen the next time around if we start now. In the meantime, keep your collective chins up and think about the future that we can work together to build. And if you find yourself getting depressed, just think about the Classical Liberals that had to endure Carter getting elected when the Soviet Union was itching to nuke everyone, it doesn't seem so bad now does it? Really?
