I have been pretty busy today calling my Congress critters and writing letters. I am both happy it worked out this way, and sorry to see it happen.

However, I wanted to point a few things out from the far right philosophical "conservative" perspective, and ask a favor from the die hard Republicans that are still mad at us.

First, the Democrats didn't win. Remember that. RINOs were thrown out. There is a big difference. Believe that.

This is not the end of the world. The Republicans have accomplished nothing of substance and they held the House, Senate, and the White house. What can the Democrats do? With the RINOs that were thrown out gone, and replaced with conservative Democrats, the leftists are even weaker now than they were before.

All we have done for the most part is replace RINOs with conservative Democrats. We are better off for it, and the Democrats are better off for it. It will help take control of the Democrats from the moonbat leftists and put it back into the hands of more rational people.

A few of the losses were to conservatives, that intentionally abused the conservative movement. Santorum is a case in point. Him, and people like him, can still come back later if they are repentant.

This is also going to cull a lot of the Republican's weak leadership.

In addition, the Media has been right about a few things. This was a referendum on Iraq... just not in the way the media has been portraying it. This was a slap against the weak prosecution of the war in Iraq.

A vast majority of conservative ballot initiatives have passed. This needs to be expanded to the next election. We can no longer trust our leaders in Washington to fight for conservatism. This also proves the American people are far more conservative than the leadership we are being saddled with. 

All in all, it could be a lot worse. At least this didn't happen two years from now. 

However, now my favor request.

Republicans, I know you are mad at us for doing this. However, it is done. Please write and call your Congressmen and explain to them what happened. Don't let them believe the MSM. And explain to them that if they don't wish to see this again in two years they have to become a conservative party again.

I am sorry for your loss.
